About HarmotomeHide

Formula:
Ba2(Si12Al4)O32 · 12H2O
Usually contains minor Ca, K and Na in variable proportions. A previously used formula is (Ba0.5,Ca0.5,K,Na)5[Al5Si11O32] · 12H2O.
Colour:
Colorless, white, grey, pink, yellow, brown
Lustre:
Vitreous
Hardness:
4 - 5
Specific Gravity:
2.41 - 2.47
Crystal System:
Monoclinic
Name:
From the Greek for "joint" and "cutting," alluding to the frequently twinned crystals.
Zeolite Group. Harmotome-Phillipsite-Ca Series.

Less common than some other members of the phillipsite subgroup but visually very similar and can be misidentified without chemical analysis.

Optical Data of HarmotomeHide

Type:
Biaxial (+)
RI values:
nα = 1.503 - 1.508 nβ = 1.505 - 1.509 nγ = 1.508 - 1.514
2V:
Measured: 43° , Calculated: 80°
Max. Birefringence:
δ = 0.005 - 0.006
Based on recorded range of RI values above.

Interference Colours:
The colours simulate birefringence patterns seen in thin section under crossed polars. They do not take into account mineral colouration or opacity.

Michel-Levy Bar The default colours simulate the birefringence range for a 30 µm thin-section thickness. Adjust the slider to simulate a different thickness.

Grain Simulation You can rotate the grain simulation to show how this range might look as you rotated a sample under crossed polars.

Surface Relief:
Moderate
Dispersion:
weak
