California Earth Minerals Corporation is dedicated to helping families, as well as animals, live healthier lives, healing the earth, and detoxifying our soil and water.

Ray Kong founded California Earth Minerals October, 1997. Today, the company is the industry leader in research and development of products utilizing the healing restorative properties of calcium montmorillonite — a living clay found right here in Southern California, desert areas of the western U.S., as well as regions of France and selected countries around the world. Ray's lifelong fascination with geology, led him to acquire a California mine, rich in a pure form of calcium montmorillonite.

At first, he simply supplied distributors with our calcium montmorillonite to satisfy the needs of several commercial businesses that in turn sold to major nutriceuticals, formulators, tablitizers, cosmetic firms, etc. In fact, California Earth Minerals is a leading industry supplier of edible nutritional clay. But the need to reinvigorate the earth moved Ray Kong to undertake his own research into how this clay could be used to help rid the population of the toxins ingested from food grown in chemically saturated, over harvested, mineral/nutrient depleted soil.

He assembled the expertise of researchers and scientists to help produce the specialty products now known as TERRAMIN, TerraBathe and TerraPond, TERRASILK, Nutramin, Earthfood, etc.

Ray Kong has introduced many of these products, with the help of the Federal government NASA division, Department of Fish and Wildlife, various major university government funded projects, geologists, nutritionists, etc. He has appeared on the Discovery Channel to talk about edible clays, has participated in national health fairs, koi fish clubs, and water garden shows, and has spoken at several wellness groups on the healing restorative power of this living clay.

Today, he devotes his life to promoting wellness, and restoring the environment.
