thanks kayak, I can see finest - mint, but where does shakedown come in?

kayakamina

See Chambers- Mint (3) - An aggressive, threatening movement.

gardenknowin

Why is it SIFT? :S

Only answer that makes any sense is SILT

johndeeby

My vote is for SILT

Silt is the finest discrete particle obtained in shakedown:

BOULDER, ROCK,STONE,...............,SAND,.......SILT.

Particles smaller than silt homogenise into clays.
