bentonite.com - available all over, ground down to three microns in some grades ... i've used it for waterproofing freshly dug or dammed ponds when the onsite clay looked like it might not seal ... the grade they have at cement plants for waterproofing concrete works fine, one sack will cover quite an area ... pretty dusty stuff but heavy, it settles fast like any clay dust [edit] - i just checked out some of that site, apparently some grades are considered kosher food additives -g- [edit 2] - we used to make our own anfo [ammonium nitrate/fuel oil] for about a third the price of the explosives company's Amex [brand name] ... package it up in plastic bags of a pound or so, stuff one or two in a crack of a big stump or rock face or whatever, quarter stick of expensive 75% dynamite to touch it off, one cap, short piece of fuse, and kaboom no more stump/rock in the way ..... maybe there should be more urea on the market and less ammonium nitrate ... urea is just as efficient a way of getting nitrogen to plant roots ... it's 46-0-0 while nh3oh is 54-0-0 but is cheaper to make by the same proportion, more or less ... and i don't think urea is explosive ... [maybe it is? ... not sure]
