I recently received this glaze recipe from a person in Israel. I responded
with "What's the difference between Magnesium Carbonate and Magnesium?".
They said it was a completely different word that translated to the same
word in English. Any ideas? Anyone?

^9 Blue Israeli glaze :
Soda feldspar - 50 gr
Kaolin - 20 gr
Magnesium Carbonate - 10 gr
Magnesium - 5 gr
whiting - 10 gr
cobalt ox. - 2 (try also with 5 ) gr
manganese - 1 gr
