More About Diatomite
Diatomite, also known as diatomaceous earth, is the naturally-occurring fossilized remains of diatoms, which are single-celled aquatic algae. Diatomite is a highly pure sedimentary deposit consisting almost entirely of silica.

How is Diatomite formed?
When diatoms die, their external cell wall layer (composed almost purely of silica) sink and deposit onto the sediment surface of the ocean or lake bed. When the sediment layer has accumulated a significant amount of diatomite deposits in sufficient thickness and purity, they lithify into rocks overtime - diatomite is formed.
