spongolite मीनिंग इन हिंदी

Spongolite is obtained from mines in Mount Barker, Western Australia and Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil.
While spongolite is commercially exploited for its absorbent qualities, it is also cut into bricks to use as a building material.
It grows in red-brown gravelly clay, brown clayey sand, sandy loam, spongolite, laterite and sandstone based soils.
A quarry to the east of the town is one of two major sources of spongolite, also called " Mount Barker Stone ".
