The geotechnical properties of white and coloured Kaolin rocks were investigated during this study. The presence of iron oxides (Fe2O3) on the geotechnical qualities of white and coloured kaolin rocks was investigated using an experimental programme. Because of the oxidation influences, white Kaolin clay has better geotechnical capabilities than coloured kaolin clay. The iron oxide in coloured kaolin disrupted the internal structure of the Kaolinitic mineral and decreased the crystallinity degree, causing it to become porous. We can get the (G dyne, K dyne, B, ) parameters from (Vp, Vs), and we can get the (Easta) parameters from (Vp, Vs) (E dyne). Because of the effect of iron oxides on structure, the compressive strength of white and coloured kaolin differs during: modulus Ratio, toughness modules), indicating that coloured kaolin is weaker than white kaolin. White kaolin rocks have a higher rate of decreasing resistance than coloured kaolin rocks.
