PART II. RULES 12b-25 (b) AND (c)
 
If the subject report could not be filed without unreasonable effort or expense and the registrant seeks relief pursuant to Rule 12b-25(b), the following should be completed. (Check box if appropriate.)

(c)  The accountant’s statement or other exhibit required by Rule 12b-25(c) has been attached if applicable.

 
PART III. NARRATIVE
 
State below in reasonable detail the reasons why Forms 10-K, 20-F, 11-K, 10-Q, 10-D, N-SAR, N-CSR, or the transition report or portion thereof, could not be filed within the prescribed time period. (Attach extra sheets if needed.)

Following the release of AMCOL's earnings for the second quarter in a press release dated July 27, 2012, AMCOL determined that it may need to reduce the value of inventory recorded in its Environmental segment’s operations in Spain.  AMCOL management and the Audit Committee are working together to determine the amount of the reduction required and to identify the financial reporting periods impacted.  AMCOL will not be able to file the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2012 until this review is complete.  At this time, AMCOL believes that the relevant periods may include one or more periods dating back to as early as 2010.  Currently, neither AMCOL management nor our Audit Committee is able to determine whether any financial statements will need to be restated or whether the financial results presented in the July 27, 2012 press release will need to be revised.

PART IV. OTHER INFORMATION

(3)  Is it anticipated that any significant change in results of operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof? [  ] Yes  [X] No

If so, attach an explanation of the anticipated change, both narratively and quantitatively, and, if appropriate, state the reasons why a reasonable estimate of the results cannot be made.

AMCOL will not know whether any significant change in results of operations from the corresponding period for the last fiscal year will be reflected by the earnings statements to be included in the subject report or portion thereof until management and the Audit Committee have concluded their review of the relevant issues.
