Hnontronite(Ca)

Formula : Ca0.17Fe1.67Al0.67Si3.66O10(OH)2:4.24H2O

Space group: 
Monoclinic - Prismatic HM symbol (2/m) Space Group: C 2/m
Dana class: 
71.3.1a.3VIII- 71 Phyllosilicate Minerals ; 71.3 Phyllosilicates Phyllosilicate Sheets of Six-Membered Rings with 2:1 clays ; 71.3.1a Smectite group (Dioctahedral Smectites)
High temperature: 
Low temperature mineral. At higher temperatures(> 500C), detachment of (OH) ions takes place.
Geological context: 
Nontronite has been formed by the alteration of eruptive igneous rocks. Nontronite is found both in mineral veins (often with opal and quartz) and as an alteration product of volcanic glasses.
