THE CLAY PARTICLE
When we look at clay through an electron microscope, the clay
particles seen as a thin hexagonal plate, approximately 100
times longer than it is thick. (Note: Richard Burkett has
placed an image file of clay particles as seen under an electron
microscope in another directory of the Ceramics Gopher at SDSU.)
When we add the water of plasticity to the dry clay, moisture
between the flat plates creates a surface tension attraction so
that the particles do not easily pull apart, but they slide
easily over one another. The flat shape of the clay particle
and the surface tension when water is added gives the strength
and plasticity which we associate with clay in its workable state.

Yes, clay can be found in mountains. Clay is a common sedimentary rock material that can be formed from the weathering and erosion of rocks found in mountainous regions. It can also be deposited by rivers and streams in mountainous areas.
Polymer clay is plastic and is not particularly healthy to eat, like all kins of plastic. However, small amounts of clay digested will not be of any hazard to your health. Polymer clay have today no health hazard label, and is certified as nontoxic, meaning that you will not be poisoned if you eat small amounts of clay. But, since it is plastic, it may cause some problems if eaten in large quantities. I would in any case, toxic or not, recommend you not to eat it, and you should keep it out of reach of small children and pets.
Rich topsoil over clay is typically found in regions with temperate climates, where organic matter accumulates over time on top of clay subsoil. These areas are commonly found in agricultural regions, river valleys, and plains where the soil has been deposited by erosion or geological processes.
Clay can be found in various locations across Trinidad, such as Mayaro, Guayaguayare, and Cumaca. These areas have deposits of various types of clay that are used for pottery making, construction, and other industrial purposes. It is important to obtain permission from landowners before collecting clay from these areas.
Of course not!
Clay tablets were made out of clay that was easily found by the rivers of Tigris and Euphrates.

It is not made of plastic like a plastic bottle. The term plastic describes its texture; under stress it behaves in a manner like modelling clay.
Clay is generally considered the gold-standard of poker chips, but they can be quite expensive. Alternatives to clay include clay composite and plastic.
Melted plastic
Clay is found in the ground.
You keep clay fresh by making sure no air gets to it. You can do this by wrapping it in plastic or wax paper.

Clay is one form of soil. It is found in different areas, but is frequently found along riverbanks.
clay could be made pourous if we add water to it to soften it and remove all hard parts of it
