About SodaliteHide

Formula:
Na8(Al6Si6O24)Cl2
Some K substitutes for Na in the grey white Afghan sodalites. Hackmanite was originally defined as containing S. The brilliant yellow fluorescence arises from a disulfide ion with a negative charge replacing the Cl.
Colour:
All Colours
Lustre:
Vitreous, Greasy
Hardness:
5½ - 6
Specific Gravity:
2.27 - 2.33
Crystal System:
Isometric
Name:
The name reflects its sodium content.
Sodalite Group. Also classed as a feldspathoid.

Ideally sodalite has Na4Cl in the two cages in the unit cell. Unlike haüyne and nosean, sodalite is virtually CO2-free (Bellatreccia et al., 2009).

In some sodalites the aluminosilicate cages appear to contain only Na and Cl according to EDS spectra.
Unlike haüyne and lazurite, Ca and K are seldom in the cages. The grey sodalites from Afghanistan contain minor K.
The white variety hackmanite is reported to contain S, but EDS studies show if it is there, it often occurs below detection limits (~1%) (R.W.M. Woodside, unpublished data).

The photoluminescence effect in sodalite may be connected with admixture of sulfur (presence of S enlarges the unit cell). Sodalite is also photochromic likely due to formation of F-centers (Zahoransky et al., 2016).
