1. Clinoptilolite
Clinoptilolite in the dense rock structure mostly takes the form of a radial plate aggregate. Where the pores are developed, plate crystals with complete or partially complete geometric shapes can be formed, with a width of up to 20mm and a thickness of about 5mm. The bottom is at an angle of about 120 degrees, and some are in the shape of diamond-shaped plates and laths. The EDX spectrum is Si, Al, Na, K, Ca.
2. Mordenite
SEM characteristic micromorphology is fibrous, fibril-like, straight or slightly curved, with a diameter of about 0.2mm and a length of several mm. It can be an authigenic mineral, but it can also be seen at the outer edge of the altered mineral, gradually separating in a radial pattern. Formation of fibrillar mordenite. This kind of mordenite should be a modified mineral. The main components of the EDX spectrum are Si, Al, Ca, and Na.
3. Analcime
The characteristic micromorphology of SEM is tetragonal trioctahedron and polygons of various shapes. The crystal faces are mostly 4- and 6-sided. The grains can be as large as tens of mm. The characteristic elements of EDX spectrum are Si, Al and Na, and there can be a small amount. Ca.
4. Chabazite
SEM characteristic micromorphology: the size of short rhombic columns can range from 1mm to several mm, and the EDX spectrum is Si, Al, Ca, and may have a small amount of K and Na.
