  • Following a round-table discussion at the Mid-European Clay Conference in Dresden 2014, new recommendations for illite ‘crystallinity’ Kübler index standardization have been agreed upon. The use of Crystallinity Index standards in the form of rock-fragment samples will be continued, along with the same numerical scale of measurement presented by Warr & Rice (1994). However, in order to be compatible with the original working definition of Kübler's (1967) anchizone, the upper and lower boundary limits of the Crystallinity Index Standard (CIS) scale are adjusted appropriately from 0.25°2θ and 0.42°2θ to 0.32°2θ and 0.52°2θ. This adjustment is based on an inter-laboratory correlation between the laboratories of Basel, Neuchâtel and the CIS scale. The details of this correction are presented in this first note, as discussed at the round-table meeting and will be further substantiated by a correlation program between CIS and former Kübler–Frey–Kisch standards.
