  ABSTRACT: This paper evaluates Ouallé clay for ceramic applications using geotechnical, chemical, mineralogical, thermal, and firing-based characterization methods. The study finds that the clay is mainly kaolinite-rich, moderately plastic, and potentially suitable as a base material for faience and fired clay products. The fired specimens show acceptable shrinkage, but the porosity remains high and the maximum compressive strength is moderate.
