    AbstractOn the basis of particle size distributions, bulk chemical and mineralogical compositions and firing properties, this paper outlines an assessment of the industrial suitability of Mayouom kaolin deposit for sustainable development. The characteristics of the studied samples compared to some standards indicate that these kaolins are high quality industrial clays. Firing yielded good results for white firing ceramics and for refractory ceramics. For other industrial uses, a treatment by purification and titanium removal is necessary to improve their suitability.
