Azomite
Atomize is a Source of Minerals & Trace Elements
Azomite is the name of a special rock in Utah. Early this century geological prospector Rollin Anderson found deposits of montmorillonite clay in a valley south of Salt Lake City. U.S. Bureau of Mines analysis showed the clay is similar to Chilean/Peruvian caliches rocks from which much of the world's nitrate was mined. Anderson ground montmorillonite as fine as possible, and then put it in his garden. Results were amazing and nearly immediate. Minerals in Azomite are necessary for optimal metabolism in living things. Ground to dust, minerals are small enough to pass through cell walls of organisms.
Azomite is natural mined rock from a specific volcanic deposit in central Utah marketed as a free-flowing, less than 200 mesh, tan to pink powder with a density of 48 lbs./cubic foot. No additives, synthetics or fillers are added to Azomite. Mineralogical Azomite is rhyolitic tuff breccia. Chemically, it's hydrated sodium calcium aluminosilicate. U.S. Code of Federal Regulations (21 CFR 582.2729) lists it as "anti-caking agent." It's recognized as safe (GRAS) by FDA for feeds up to 2% by weight. Azomite is odorless, and insoluble however Micronized Azomite can be put in to a suspension and applied through most irrigation systems. Azomite has 70 major and trace elements, as its name means "A to Z Of Minerals Including Trace Elements." Typical analysis shows every element that's beneficial to plants and animals, and other elements (micro-nutrients) scientists believe essential.
Azomite was mined since 1942 as a soil amendment and livestock feed additive. Cattlemen report faster weight gain, improved feed efficiency, upgraded meat quality, greater disease resistance, and reduced mortality. Dairymen report increased milk and higher butterfat. Poultry producers report enhanced egg fertility and shell quality. Crop farmers report improved growth, health, and size. Potatoes report 19-60% increase in yield; sugar beets are larger, with higher sugar content. Citrus growers report improved recovery from decline and healthier trees. Research recommends 300-600 lbs./acre broadcast, or 2 lbs./10 sq. ft in gardens.
Our most recent success, the picture above says it all. The corn on the right was planted with AZOMITE® one month after the corn on the left was planted without AZOMITE®. Yes – one month LATER!

AZOMITE® will not burn plants and can be applied directly or with compost, humus, manures, fertilizers, and used in compost tea productions. Azomite helps promote beneficial soil microbial life.
Field Crops
Apply 75 – 300 lbs. per acre initially followed by annual maintenance of 50 – 100 lbs. per acre or according to needs based on soil quality.
Citrus/Fruit/Vines
Apply annually to all trees on ground surface under the drip line at the rate of one to five pounds, depending on the tree size. (Refer to table below for more guidelines.) Double the application for decline or blight stricken trees. For grapes, apply ½ lb. to 1 lb. to the soil around each plant and lightly till into soil.
Flowers/Plants/Vegetables
When preparing the soil, use AZOMITE® at the rate of one lb. per ten sq. ft. If in rows, mix into the soil along the rows at rate of one lb. per 25 ft. of row. If bed is established, sprinkle around each plant. For house plants, mix one teaspoon per two inch pot diameter with potting soil before planting. Give one teaspoon quarterly thereafter. For roses, apply 1.2 lb. to 1 lb. to the soil around each plant and lightly till into soil.
Lawn/Turf Care
For existing lawns, apply ten pounds per 1,000 square feet. Apply up to four times per year. For new lawns, apply at a heavier rate and till into soil before planting seed or laying sod.
Ornamentals/Shrubs/Trees
Apply annually to all trees on ground surface under the drip line. Recommended application for trees:
Tree Base DiameterRate
Rate < 10” 1 – 5 lbs.
10” – 20” 5 – 15 lbs.
> 20” 15 – 40 lbs.
Apply light coating from trunk to drip line. For ornamentals and shrubs, apply ½ lb. to 1 lb. to the soil around each plant and lightly till into soil.
