Dawsonite is a rare, hydrated carbonate mineral mostly found in sedimentary rocks. It was named after Sir John William Dawson, a renowned Canadian geologist. This mineral has some synonym terms such as Carbonate Hydroxide, Carbonate of Alumina, Carbonoxalate Hydroxide, Hydrated Sodium Aluminum Carbonate, and Sodium Aluminum Carbonate Dihydrate. Dawsonite is commonly used as a raw material in the production of aluminum since it contains a high concentration of sodium and aluminum. Its formula is NaAlCO3(OH)2 and has a perfect rhombohedral crystal shape. It is a vital mineral in the mining industry, and its demand keeps increasing due to its properties.
