Abstract
In 1890, L. V. Pirsson 2 described under the name of mordenite a crystalline mineral, isomorphous with heulandite, occurring in a highly weathered amygdaloidal basalt in the Hoodoo Mts., Wyoming. His analysis (1, table I) showed that the mineral had a composition near that of the original mordenite of H. How (1864) and his assumption that it represented a platy-crystalline phase of that normally fibrous mineral was generally accepted.Keywords
