Can someone suggest me some specific clay minerals such as zeolites, kaolinite etc that can be the lead to release of high fluoride in groundwater.
The study area is an alluvial deposits and there is no role of geological formations in release fluoride in groundwater?
Dear Trapa,

Dear Raju Thapa,
I humbly apologise for misspelling your name in my previous post. Here is one more useful link and PDF attachment for your perusal.

Clay in Fluorite rich areas usually have high Fl content in ground water.
Thank you Virendra Kumar Saxena for your answer. Actually i want to know the names of some clay minerals that are responsible for high fluoride release in groundwater.
In our experience, we observed more Fluoride in Illite rich areas. But it depends in various factors. Raju, appreciating your remark.
"Surface Modified Carbons as Scavengers for Fluoride from Water"
A good book on fluoride. Thanks to Mr. Jack Son
