Natrolite is a
tectosilicate mineral species belonging to the
zeolite group. It is a
hydrated sodium and
aluminium silicate with the
formula Na2Al2Si3O10·2H2O...
- It has
nearly the same
angles between the
crystal faces as does
natrolite, but
natrolite is
orthorhombic and
scolecite is monoclinic. The
