I just got in a shipment of Alberta and the bag said it contained 5% =
barium. I have been looking at the archives and found a number of =

What gives?

I just looked at the original analysis for Alberta slip and there is no
barium included.

They may now be adding it to stop scumming - Check with Tony Hansen at:

He is still the Plainsman Clay technical advisor.
