     Is this what they call fly ash?  Pliny Fisk has done work with this =

  "FLY ASH"  It would seem that it is the air born solids from a
  combustion, as in coal...
  The DUST that I refer to, is the air born dust that comes=20
  from gravel being crushed or ground.
  When it comes out of the process it is not usable by the asphalt
  plant. And it is as sticky as "Blue Gumbo" clay. We have to=20
  use a backhoe to scrape it out of the dump truck box. =20
