Synthesis　of　zeolites　or　zeolite/clay　composites　from　natural　aluminosilicate　minerals　has　received　extensive　attention　because　of　its　great　usefulness　in　greening　the　zeolite　manufacturing　process,　in　which　effective　activation　of　natural　aluminosilicate　minerals　is　crucially　important.　Herein,　we　present　an　energy　saving　and　green　approach,　the　quasi-solid-phase　activation　method,　to　efficiently　destruct　the　natural　minerals　under　the　conditions　of　a　temperature　as　low　as　100　degrees　C　and　an　activation　time　as　short　as　30　min.　Our　strategy　consists　of　the　following　three　steps:　(1)　preparation　of　a　mixture　of　a　natural　kaolin　mineral,　NaOH,　and　water　by　kneading,　(2)　extruding　of　the　mixture　into　sticks,　and　(3)　low-temperature　calcination　of　the　stick,　featured　by　the　combined　use　of　mechanochemical　actions.　The　results　showed　that　84.7%　Si　species　and　69.0%　Al　species　in　the　kaolin　mineral　underwent　a　large　degree　of　depolymerization　in　the　kneading　extruding　steps,　and　following　calcination　at　100　degrees　C　resulted　in　the　complete　depolymerization　of　the　kaolin　mineral　to　monomer　orthosilicate　anions　(Q)　and　tetra　coordinated　aluminum　(A(IV))　species,　which　are　highly　active　silica　and　alumina　sources　for　synthesizing　aluminosilicate　zeolites.　Using　the　activated　kaolin　mineral　as　a　starting　material,　pure-phase　NaY　and　NaA　zeolites　have　been　successfully　synthesized.
