Most mafic-lava volcanoes are oceanic volcanoes,
It's not a good idea to come to the table unprepared.

From Anya site
From their composition, you are adding iron to the water. Most water purification technologies are designed to remove iron from water. " Iron 1334 ppm"

"Adya Clarity minerals are in sulfate ionic form. This is a very strong relationship for minerals. "
"For example, if sodium fluoride is present in water, the Adya Clarity minerals will rearrange the molecules into calcium fluoride. Calcium fluoride naturally occurs in the Earth’s waterways and within our bodies. "
These two statements would tend to indicate that the solutions are Calcium sulfate (ie "hard water" that you try to get rid of by using a water softener)
The activity as a flocculant would tend to indicate that it might be a sodium hypochlorite solution (which is useful in treating water if you are in a third world country) http://www.bmj.com/content/331/7515/478
Mica is a relatively stable silicate mineral that won't produce any of the above compounds (from Mt Fuji or anywhere else - at least without adding some real nasty chemicals to it).
I would never drink anything from this product without seeing a MSDS data sheet as to what is exactly in this. They can say it's all natural, but remember arsenic is also a pure mineral product.

I recommend that you google the names of the four gentlemen that have responded to your message. I think you might be in for a surprise.

"Julie" registered an account today just to post this message. Perhaps she was surprised with the negative reaction.
I find it amusing that she accused people of being "shills". No doubt she has heard other people use this word before.
A shill is someone, usually paid for or working for a company, who pretends to be a member of the public asking questions about or praising a product.
I wonder where Julie heard this word.
This thread is most certainly closed.
