A process for the production of finely particulate, inorganic solids by precipitation of the finely particulate inorganic solids from solution is described, in which the surface of the inorganic solids particles is covered (coated) with at least one additive, in which the additive(s) contains a dispersing agent or deflocculating agent, in which the proportion of the additives is overall at most 80 wt. %, preferably at most 40 wt. % or 30 wt. % and particularly preferably at most 15 wt. % of the coated solids, and wherein the additive(s) is added to the starting solution or solutions. Uses of the inorganic solids produced according to the invention are also described.
