- 1 - ABSTRACT A process for the production of construction material comprising the steps of: 1. heating the soil to a temperature sufficient to substantially destroy the property of the soil to swell with changing levels of moisture without causing any of the soil constituents to melt, which temperature will normally lie between 500 and 750°C depending upon the soil type, 2. adding to the soil, either before or after the heating step, iron oxide in a finely divided form, and 3. introducing into, or creating within, the mixture a solution of sodium silicate, such as by adding an aqueous solution of sodium silicate to the mixture or by adding to the mixture a strong solution of sodium hydroxide and a silica source. The construction material formed by the process, and articles formed therefrom, form part of the invention. The construction material could be used for the production of articles such as bricks or tiles or for the formation of massive structures such as building foundations or road bases.
