    #Cement made with iron #slag has been widely used since decades. For example type IIIC have 83-95% of slag content. Slag cements yet have a very slow setting time. We'll see if they really get actual #clinker (Portland cement is a mix of clinker, gypsum and usually limestone)

  19. Subsurface coal naturally burns in some places, like here on Smoky Mountain (!) in the Kaiparowits Plateau, Utah, forming huge apparently bottomless fissures belching fumes (left), and vast landscapes of baked red clinker from ancient underground coal fires (distance). How ancient? Hmmm... #clinker #geology #Kaiparowits #smokymountainroad
