This Amendment No. 7 to the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (this “ Amendment ”) is filed by (i) Minerals Technologies Inc., a Delaware corporation ( “MTI” ), and (ii) MA Acquisition Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “ Purchaser ”) and a wholly owned subsidiary of MTI. This Amendment amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 21, 2014 (together with any amendments and supplements thereto, the “Schedule TO” ) and relates to the offer by Purchaser to purchase all outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (each a “ Share ”), of AMCOL International Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“ AMCOL ” or the “ Company ”), at a price of $45.75 per Share, net to the seller in cash, without interest, less any required withholding taxes, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated March 21, 2014 (as it may be amended or supplemented, the “ Offer to Purchase ”) and in the related Letter of Transmittal (as it may be amended or supplemented, the “ Letter of Transmittal ” and, together with the Offer to Purchase, the “ Offer ”), copies of which are attached to the Schedule TO as Exhibits (a)(1)(A) and (a)(1)(B), respectively.

Capitalized terms used and not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Offer to Purchase.

Items 1 through 9 and Item 11.

The Offer to Purchase and Items 1 through 9 and Item 11 of the Schedule TO, to the extent such Items incorporate by reference the information contained in the Offer to Purchase, are hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

At 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on May 9, 2014, the Offer expired as scheduled. The Offer was not extended. The Depositary has advised Purchaser that, as of the expiration of the Offer, a total of 28,487,106 Shares were validly tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer, representing approximately 87.4% of the currently issued and outstanding Shares. As a result, the Minimum Condition has been satisfied. In addition, the Depositary has also advised Purchaser that, as of such time, Notices of Guaranteed Delivery had been delivered for 282,902 Shares, representing approximately 0.8% of the currently issued and outstanding Shares. All Shares that were validly tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer have been accepted for payment.

Following the expiration of the Offer and acceptance for payment of the Shares on May 9, 2014, MTI consummated the Merger pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement and without a meeting of AMCOL stockholders pursuant to Section 251(h) of the DGCL. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, the Purchaser was merged with and into AMCOL, with AMCOL continuing as the surviving corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of MTI. At the Effective Time, each Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than (i) Shares held by AMCOL as treasury stock or owned by MTI or the Purchaser, all of which were canceled, and (ii) Shares owned by any stockholder of AMCOL who was entitled to demand, and who properly demanded, appraisal rights pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL, was converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the Offer Price, less any applicable withholding tax. The Shares will no longer be listed on the New York Stock Exchange.

On May 9, 2014, MTI issued press releases announcing (i) the expiration and results of the Offer and (ii) the consummation of the Merger. The press releases are attached as Exhibits (a)(5)(I) and (a)(5)(J) and are incorporated herein by reference.
