Why does laterite fizz when placed in water?
When I place laterite in plain tap water (alkaline) it's produces very tiny
bubbles and fizzes for a few moments and keeps releasing tiny bubbles for at least a minute. Does anyone know what this gas is? What is your laterites pH? What does laterite feel like when you put it on your tounge? My tounge sticks to it with a vengence!! Cheers from Australia, Peter |

Does anyone know what this gas is? Air. What is your laterites pH? Should be neutral. What does laterite feel like when you put it on your tounge? My tounge sticks to it with a vengence!! Chalk. The stuff is utterly void of water, it's just taking water on and tiny air bubbles inside are escaping.
