Spodumene is an interesting and unusual mineral. It actually expands slightly when fired. In clay bodies and glazes, it's used as a source of lithia (Li2O), a strong flux. Lithium's use in batteries has risen so greatly that the need for sources of lithium has affected the economies of nations. This has had an effect on ceramicists who use it.

Government actions, this product is no longer available for retail sales."...(see  more)
