Answer and Explanation:

Engineering problems that can be anticipated from for such minerals are

montmorillonite are very costly mud minerals . Under poor seepage framework , weathering of volcanic Ash results in montmorillonite.
geotechnical engineers faces issues as they have to comprehend structure of clay precious stones carefully .
they faces issues to understand the impact of surface science to comprehend the behavior of expanding in such earth minerals .
Admission of water into the montmorillonite causes expanding in it because of which specialists faces issues to know the reason and it's behavior to understand its impact.
