Smectite(MX80:3.989H2O)

Formula : Na0.409K0.024Ca0.009(Si3.738Al0.262)(Al1.598Mg0.214Fe0.208)O10(OH)2:3.989H2O

Space group: 
Monoclinic - Prismatic HM symbol (2/m) Space Group: C 2/m
Dana class: 
71.3.1b.2VIII- 71 Phyllosilicate Minerals ; 71.3 Phyllosilicates Phyllosilicate Sheets of Six-Membered Rings with 2:1 clays ; 71.3.1b Smectite group (Trioctahedral Smectites)
High temperature: 
Low temperature mineral. At higher temperatures(> 500C), detachment of (OH) ions takes place.
Geological context: 
Montmorillonite and beidellite are the principal constituents of bentonite clay deposits. Montmorillonite results from the weathering of basic rocks mainly in conditionsof poordrainage when magnesium is not removed.
