According to many exploration and exploitation activities, we can account this mineral as investment preference in mining operations of province. However, there is not any sufficient exploration study, suitable method exploitation and related industries so there is not observable improvement in this section. Chah Jires bentonite deposit has been studied In this article. In this deposit, bentonite composed of montmorillonite, cristobalite, quarts, albite and calcite as main and minor minerals.
