Chabazite is a fairly rare zeolite species not often found in the same deposits, and in sizable crystals, as the more common zeolite species stilbites and apophyllites (i know not why, but this seems clearly the case). These classics from Canada are, to me, the most colorful and interesting crystals for the collector because of the size. This large plate was sold to Ed David by Bill Butkowski some years ago ($1200), and long resided in that collection. Often they are labelled as Gmelinite: from Five Islands, Nova Scotia. This piece is certainly a chabazite from Wasson's Bluff, Nova Scotia, I am told (with thanks to Ronnie van Dommelen) despite its original label from Ed. Gmelinites from Five Islands are more pink than orange and very lustrous with triangular growth hillocks on the faces and have a foamy or hollow interior. The chabazite from Wasson's is quite distinct, being orange and with odd curved zoning between opaque and more gemmy regions. The associated heulandite from Wasson's is typically quite lustrous (even when the chabs are etched) and again is distinct from Five Islands. The little calcite is also the usual Wasson's habit.Good, large chabazites are very difficult to find and collect.\u003C\u002Fdd>\u003C\u002Fdl>\u003C\u002Fdd>\u003C\u002Fdl>",512,{"id":322,"source_url":323,"license_code":190,"credit_html":324,"title":325,"description":319,"author":213,"original_width":237,"original_height":326},5101,"https:\u002F\u002Fcommons.wikimedia.org\u002F?curid=10476341","Robert M.

The lustre is unusually good on this piece, almost glassy and therefore far better than on others I have seen in the past! This is new material collected recently from this classic old locality that is difficult to access, by my friend Rod Tyson (a semi-retired mineral dealer and well-known Canadian field collector!). This is a significant piece, from what I have seen in the past and also in context of this new find , for overall size and quality.\u003C\u002Fdd>\u003C\u002Fdl>\u003C\u002Fdd>\u003C\u002Fdl>",{"id":374,"source_url":375,"license_code":376,"credit_html":377,"title":378,"description":379,"author":262,"original_width":380,"original_height":381},80605,"https:\u002F\u002Fcommons.wikimedia.org\u002F?curid=115350069","CC BY-SA 4.0","Géry PARENT, via \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fcommons.wikimedia.org\u002F?curid=115350069\" rel=\"noopener\">Wikimedia Commons\u003C\u002Fa>","Chabazite-Ca, stellerite, calcite.jpg","Chabazite-Ca, stellerite, calcite : Takat (Takkat n' Sountat), Imilchil Caïdat, Imilchil Cercle, Midelt Province, Drâa-Tafilalet Region, Morocco",1975,1316,[383,390,396,401,407],{"id":384,"url":385,"label":386,"formula":387,"spacegroup":388,"year":389},2436,"\u002Fcif\u002F2436.cif","Nakatsuka 2007","Ca1.568 Na.492 Al3.396 Si8.556 O36.471 H24.942","R -3 m",2007,{"id":391,"url":392,"label":393,"formula":394,"spacegroup":388,"year":395},2437,"\u002Fcif\u002F2437.cif","Gualtieri 2000","(Si8.52 Al3.48) O42.15 Ca1.74 H36.3",2000,{"id":397,"url":398,"label":399,"formula":400,"spacegroup":388,"year":167},2438,"\u002Fcif\u002F2438.cif","Mazzi 1983 · Ca1.01 Na.226 K.164 (Si8.844 Al3.156) O24","Ca1.01 Na.226 K.164 (Si8.844 Al3.156) O24",{"id":402,"url":403,"label":404,"formula":405,"spacegroup":406,"year":167},2439,"\u002Fcif\u002F2439.cif","Mazzi 1983 · Ca1.01 Na.226 K.164 Si8.821 Al3.166 O24","Ca1.01 Na.226 K.164 Si8.821 Al3.166 O24","P -1",{"id":408,"url":409,"label":410,"formula":411,"spacegroup":388,"year":158},2440,"\u002Fcif\u002F2440.cif","Alberti 1982","K.17 Mg.4 Ca1.6 Sr.34 (Al3.84 Si8.16) O39.04 H30.08",[413,414],"Chabasita-Ca","Chabasite-Ca",[416,420,424,428,432,436],{"lang":417,"names":418},"ca",[419],"Cabazita-Ca",{"lang":421,"names":422},"de",[423],"Chabasit-Ca",{"lang":425,"names":426},"eu",[427],"Txabazita-Ca",{"lang":429,"names":430},"fr",[431,7],"Adipite",{"lang":433,"names":434},"it",[435,7],"cabasite-Ca",{"lang":437,"names":438},"lv",[439,440,441,442,443],"Adipīts","Akadialīts","Fakolīts","Šabazīts","Šabazīts-Ca","Q6111728",{"history":446,"applications":450},{"markdown":447,"model_version":448,"prompt_version":449,"reviewed_at":11},"The name *chabazite* hides an old copying mistake. It traces to a poem listing twenty stones, ascribed to Orpheus — the legendary founder of an ancient Greek mystery cult[1]. One of those stones was *khalazios*, a name that likely came from *khalaza*, the Greek word for hail, because the stone looked like a hailstone[2].\n\nIn 1792 the French naturalist Louis-Augustin Bosc d'Antic reached for that old word to name the mineral[3]. He picked up a garbled version, *khabazios* in place of *khalazios*, and coined the name *chabasie* from it. The spelling later drifted to the form used today. Another reading is gentler: it takes the root word as *chabazios*, meaning tune or melody, and dates the naming to 1788[4]. The meaning and the year both remain unsettled.\n\nFor most of its history, *chabazite* named a single mineral. That changed in 1997, when an international committee rewrote the rules for naming zeolites — a family of minerals with open, cage-like crystal frameworks[5]. Chabazite turned out to be not one mineral but a series: the same framework holding different metals in its cavities. The committee split it by which metal dominates, adding a suffix to mark each one[6]. The calcium-dominant member became *chabazite-Ca*, the most common of the set. Telling the members apart by eye is impossible; only a chemical analysis settles which metal is in the lead[7].","claude-opus-4-8","1.7.0",{"markdown":451,"model_version":448,"prompt_version":449,"reviewed_at":11},"Chabazite's crystal is riddled with channels too small to see, yet wide enough to trap gas molecules one at a time. It belongs to the zeolites — minerals built on exactly this kind of open, sieve-like framework. That structure does the work behind every use the mineral has.\n\nThe clearest example is gas cleaning. Natural chabazite-rich tuff, a soft volcanic rock, is mined at Bowie, Arizona. Processed into an adsorbent, it strips hydrogen chloride from hydrogen streams, water from chlorine, and carbon dioxide from stack-gas emissions[1]. Chabazite shrugs off acid where many materials corrode. It withstands continuous cycling in acid environments, which lets it pull water and carbon dioxide out of sour natural gas[2]. In one process the same Bowie chabazite removed water, hydrogen sulfide, and carbon dioxide from low-grade natural gas under swings of pressure[3].\n\nThe structure also swaps ions. Aluminum in the framework leaves negatively charged sites. Dissolved sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium then readily replace one another in the cavities — the basis for using chabazite in water softeners[4]. That same grip on metal ions has been put to nuclear cleanup: natural chabazite from Bowie took up radioactive cesium from contaminated water at the damaged reactor at Three Mile Island, Pennsylvania[5].\n\nA word of caution separates the mineral from its industrial namesakes. The framework chabazite is built on, labelled CHA, can be grown in a laboratory at compositions never found in nature[6]. Two such synthetic materials, SSZ-13 and SAPO-34, dominate high-value modern chemistry. They turn methanol into the building blocks of plastics. Loaded with copper, they scrub nitrogen oxides from diesel exhaust[7]. Those are achievements of manufactured CHA solids, not of the mined mineral."]
