Process for producing inorganic granules and the use therefor

A process for producing inorganic pigment granules and inorganic filler granules which comprise of one or more pigments or fillers and one or more inorganic binders, which have a water content of not more than 5% by weight, and the particle diameter of which is between 100 .mu.m and 2 mm, comprising the steps of adding a salt as a binder to an aqueous suspension of pigment or filler, and adding an organic or metallo-organic liquefying agent in addition, and subsequently converting the suspension into granules, wherein the organic liquefying agent or the organic fraction in the metallo-organic liquefying agent is thermally decomposed without organic residues remaining in the granular material.
