Ferrierite-Mg from
Kamloops Lake, Kamloops Mining Division, British Columbia, Canada


Locality type:Railway Cutting
Classification
Species:Ferrierite-Mg
Formula:[Mg2(K,Na)2Ca0.5](Si29Al7)O72 · 18H2O
Comments:Occurs in calcite nodules in a weathered pillow basalt, commonly associated with spherulitic masses and thin crusts of quartz var.chalcedony,and less commonly with equant clinoptilolite crystals. Uncommonly occurs as geodes reaching 13x30cm lined with Ferrierite-Mg, quartz (sometimes var.amethyst) and acicular goethite.
Habit:As crystals up to 15mm long (although more commonly of sub-millimeter size), commonly forming divergant clusters of crystals. Crystals are elongated parallel to c axis, with [100} dominant, and smaller {010} and {110}, terminated by {101}.
Colour:Colorless, pink, orange and reddish.
Luminescent properties:None
Quality for species:Good crystals or rich for species - important (!)
Abundance at site:Very common
Confirmation
Validity:Valid - Type Locality
Associated Minerals:
Associates:Calcite
