Description

Scolecite is a hydrous calcium aluminium silicate, a zeolite mineral with a hardness of 5 to 5.5. Its crystal system is monoclinic. It occurs as thin, vertically striated prismatic crystals, and also in radiating fibrous masses. It can be colorless, white or yellowish, and it has a vitreous to silky luster. Scolecite forms in cavities in basaltic lavas, as well as cavities in syenites and granites. Fine Scolecite crystals have been found in Teigarhorn, Iceland, and Poona, India.
