Where is an explaination for perlite as a pattern of steel? -- 217.235.9.187 20:56, 21 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Is it necessary? There are multiple photos in the article. I'd remove the reqphoto tag, but I want more input first.

Vermiculite was tagged here as only used in horticulture, which is not accurate. Perlite and Vermiculite are "cousins", with many exfoliators making products using both lightweight aggregates.-- Achim 23:34, 27 August 2006 (UTC)
The reason was that horticulture is the main application in which vermiculite competes with perlite.
Similarly, diatomite, is not only used for filter-aids, but it is the main application in which diatomite competes with perlite.-- FocalPoint 15:32, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Someone might consider consolidating refs (currently #s 2+5) to " http://minerals.usgs.gov/minerals/pubs/commodity/perlite/mcs-2008-perli.pdf" (I don't remember how to do it; somehow involves assigning an ID to the first ref, then referencing that ID at subsequent citations).

Perlite is a rock name or perhaps primarily a rock name. What is the mineral composition of this rock? Is it perhaps microcrystalline vermiculite that gives the expansion? 150.227.15.253 ( talk) 09:43, 11 January 2018 (UTC)
