System:MonoclinicColour:Colorless to pink, ...
Hardness:3½ - 4
Member of:Zeolite Group
Name:Named Laumonite by Huäy in 1808 honoring Gillet de Laumont (1747-1834). Changed to Laumontite in 1821.


Zeolite Group. Laumontite Subgroup.

Normally it dehydrates in air to form a white powder. Specimens should be kept moist to prevent decomposition.

About Crystal Atlas

You may need to scroll this box using your mouse to view the full instructions.

The mindat.org Crystal Atlas allows you to view a selection of crystal drawings of real and idealised crystal forms for this mineral and, in certain cases, 3d rotating crystal objects. You need Java to see these. You can download Java for free - click here to download Java

The 3d models and java code are kindly provided by www.smorf.nl. You can control the movement of the models by holding down the left mouse-button over the 3d model and moving your mouse. Keyboard controls are:

: default positions
t/T: decrease/increase transparency x/X: next/previous texture
b/B: next/previous background w: toggle wireframe
s: toggle sticks m: toggle miller indices
k: toggle crystallographic axes =/-: zoom in/out
r: stop/start rotation 1/2/3
