Moroccan clay with a significant portion of stevensite, locally known as Ghassoul, is a very good sorbent. For the facilitation of the sorbent separation, it is convenient to use its magnetically modified form. Recently, the composites of FexOy/Ghassoul have been prepared using simple microwave assisted synthesis and the effect of method preparation on composite composition has been proven. The aim of the presented work was to evaluate the effect of the microwave radiation on the structure and stability of native Ghassoul. Water extracts were prepared by batch method using deionized water. The leachate was prepared for 1, 6 and 24 hours in 1:1000 ratio of solid and liquid phase from the original material and the material after interaction with microwave radiation. In the filtrate, pH was determined as well as concentrations of Al, Ca, K, Mg, Na and Si using Atomic emission spectrometry with inductively coupled plasma. The results imply that microwave treatment of the material changes the pH of the leachates to more acidic compared to the original material in which the pH increases. Even the microwave treatment of Ghassoul did not cause changes in Al, in contrast with Si which was leached considerably more in the case of the microwave-treated sample. Opposite result was observed in the case of Na and Mg. Leached amounts of Ca were comparable in both the treatments, leached amounts K were not affected by the treatment and leaching time.
