English term or phrase: wet clay
This is a clay which originates in the Alps and sediments along the rivers in the Netherlands and used by the ceramic industry (so it is not wet in a way like water is added to it). I would like to know the Hungarian term, if exists.
Thanks for any answers.

Dear Helga,

Your original request was to receive the translation of "wet clay". You wrote in your question:
"I would like to know the Hungarian term, if exists. Thanks for any answers."

The clay which was made wet can be called moistened clay for example. See:

Example for clay with added water:

http://lejpt.academicdirect.org/A11/123_130.htm

"The grinded sample was poured into a plastic basin and moistened with about 396ml of water added to the point of wedging (which is the state whereby moistened clay material remained packed into a ball-in-hand until intentional vibration causes the mixture to flow). "

Example for wet clay:

Természetesen ugyanúgy a magyarban is különbséget lehet tenni: nedves agyag kontra nedvesített agyag

A kellőképpen finomra őrölt, homogén és nedvesített agyagot azután formára préselik és vágják.

Notes to answerer
Asker: However, I still have the question what makes it technical term and on what basis could anybody differentiate between the "wet clay" gained from former river beds (in the Netherlands) and clay mined somewhere else and made wet with the addition of water.
