Claystone sorbents are among most important raw material in the Czech Republic. Bentonite is the best known claystone sorbent, mainly occurring in sites adjacent to České Středohoří Mountains and Doupovské Hory Mountains. Nevertheless, there are several significant occurrences of bentonite in sediments of brown coal basins. The paper deals with geological conditions of main bentonite locations, bentonite properties, and possible ways of its utilisation. A special focus is put on possible utilisation of bentonite for land reclamation of spoil banks originating from brown coal mining.

Keywords: bentonite, geology, sorption, land reclamation
