Diatomaceous Earth is also known as diatomite and occurs naturally as a soft sedimentary rock that is easily crumbled into a white colored powder. It can have an abrasive texture similar to that of pumice powder. Ungraded products supplied by Spectrum are indicative of a grade suitable for general industrial use or research purposes and typically are not suitable for human consumption or therapeutic use. These materials may or may not have a Certificate of Analysis available.
