Zeolite Group

Zeolite Group.
Show Zeolite Group Photos (10013)
A group name for a large number of framework alumosilicates
(and, rarely, beryllosilicates, zincosilicates, beryllophosphates)
which are built of corner-linked tetrahedra and contain 
exchangeable cations; several of these minerals have important 
technical applications. Several subgroups are distinguished

The current IMA-approved nomenclature is reported in Coombs
et al. (1997).

Note: Tvedalite may also belong to the Zeolite Group (presently uncertain since the crystal structure
of the mineral has not been determined yet).

Other minerals often found associated with zeolites include:
