Vermiculite is a mineral. The reason for which people use vermiculite in gardening is due to its high moisture retaining nature. you can use vermiculite in a mix with any soil, however it is mostly mixed with perlite in a 50:50 proportion first, and then amixed with soil. Perlite is a mined material which doesn't retain moisture, so mixing it with vermiculite means your plant's roots will get enough oxygen, and the vermiculite wont absorb too much water and nutrients to itself.
