Ben Shan Green Clay is found in the yellow dragon mountain layers along with the purple clay deposits. It is only a few centimeters thick and consists of minerals such as hydro-muscovite, kaolinite, quartz, and a small amount of iron oxide. Inside the mine, it appears milky white with a tinge of green. After 24 hours of exposure to air and moisture, it develops a greenish-yellow color. It has a flaky structure, fine and smooth texture, and when fired, it exhibits a light yellow-green color. The body is compact and even, with a pure hue and high firing temperature. It also features fine black dots scattered throughout and white snowflake-like particles in the interior, which are characteristic of Ben Shan Green Clay.
