| Species: | Gonnardite |
| Formula: | (Na,Ca)2(Si,Al)5O10 · 3H2O |
| Comments: | This was initially called plagioclase, confirmed by EDS. The EDS pattern has the same 1:1 ratio of Al: Si as plagioclase and sodalite group minerals. Gonnardite can have this same EDS. The PXRD of Gonnardite is attached to the Marialite specimen it came from. |
| Habit: | Pseudomorphing Hauyne dodecs |
| Colour: | white |
| Luminescent properties: | White in LW, MW & SW UV |
