Chabazite

Q: What is Chabazite made of?

Chabazite has the chemical formula (Ca,Na₂,K₂,Mg)Al₂Si₄O₁₂·6H₂O, crystallises in the trigonal system and measures 4 – 5 (Mohs) on the Mohs scale. Chabazite is one of the most common zeolites, a hydrated calcium aluminosilicate with a wide-pore trigonal framework used industrially for ion exchange, gas separation and radioactive caesium capture after the Chernobyl and Fukushima accidents. It forms in the vesicles of basalt lavas alongside heulandite and stilbite; classic specimens come from the Faroe Islands, Iceland and Nasik in India.

I. The Metaphysical Reading

How the stone has been held.

Chabazite is worked with as a stone of gentle sieving after periods of intense intake, kept nearby during study reviews, therapy work and long conversations that need to settle before they are acted on.
