Abstract
By means of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and the gold-decoration technique, the surface microtopography of day minerals collected from various mode of occurrence were investigated. The clay minerals investigated exclusively exhibit many kinds of patterns on their crystal surfaces, such as growth, cleavage, aggregation patterns and so on.
