This document summarizes a study on the influence of additives on the properties of sepiolite clay. Sepiolite clay was mixed with two additives - fly ash and kaolinite clay - at various percentages. The basic properties of the sepiolite, fly ash, and kaolinite used in the study are described. When fly ash was added to sepiolite at 2%, 4%, and 6% by weight, consistency limits decreased with increased additive content while unconfined compressive strength improved up to 48% with 4% fly ash. For sepiolite mixed with 25% and 50% kaolinite, consistency limits decreased and unconfined compressive strength improved up to 33%
