Eudialyte

Eudialyte, from the Greek εὑ ("good") and διαλυτός ("dissoluble"), is a rare mineral of the silicate group (subgroup of cyclosilicates), described by Friedrich Strohmeyer in 1818 from a specimen from the southwest coast of Greenland.

It is a sodium, calcium and zirconium silicate, with the chemical formula Na15Ca6Fe3Zr3Si(Si25O73)(O,OH,H2O)3(Cl,OH)2.
Its hardness is 5 to 5.5 and its density is 2.8 to 3 g cm-3.
It is soluble in acids, hence its name, and weakly radioactive2.

This rare mineral is found in Mont Saint-Hilaire in Canada, in Arkansas, in Greenland, in certain northern parts of Norway and in the Kola Peninsula in northern Russia (notably in the Khibiny Mountains deposit and in the Lovozero massif).

This mineral is part of a large complex (or extremely complex) group of the same name, of trigonal cyclosilicates with triple (Si3O9)6 and ninefold (Si9O27)18 rings. In some members of this group, two ninefold rings are linked by a single silicon atom to give a [(Si9O27)2SiO]34- group.
