Formula:
(K,Ca,Na)7(Si17Al7)O48 · 14H2O (?)
Possibly a dehydrated K-analogue of laumontite.
Forms complex intergrowths with laumontite, together with other zeolites and calcite, within late-stage lenses and veins (up to 1 cm in width). These bodies occur in xenolithic chalk block and in agglomerates.
