Older papers claim that a complete solid solution exists between tetranatrolite and gonnardite, but tetranatrolite was discredited as a separate species in 1999.[5] A series, based on the disorder of the silicon-aluminum in the framework, appears to exist between Na-rich gonnardite and natrolite, Na2(Si3Al2)O10·2H2O.[6] Gonnardite was named in 1896 after Ferdinand Pierre Joseph Gonnard[7] (1833–1923), who was Professor of Mining Engineering at the University of Lyon, France. CrystallographyOrthorhombic-bipyramidal class 2/m 2/m 2/m and tetragonal-scalenoidal class {{Overline|4}}2m (orthorhombic with a very close to b, or tetragonal with a equal to b). Crystal habitCrystals are prismatic, bounded by {110} and {111} as well as {100} and {001},[6] and gonnardite also occurs as radial hemispheres. Commonly found as zoned prisms or aggregates with thomsonite, natrolite and paranatrolite.[6] StructureGonnardite is a tectosilicate belonging to the natrolite group. The natrolite minerals are composed of chains of AlO4 and SiO4 tetrahedra that link to form frameworks. As with all zeolites, there are channels within the framework, and for the natrolite minerals the channels are occupied by polyhedra containing sodium, calcium or barium, together with oxygen and water.[9] Gonnardite has the same framework structure as natrolite, but a disordered Si, Al distribution on the tetrahedral sites.[8] Some of the water sites in the disordered natrolite structure of gonnardite are empty.[6] EnvironmentGonnardite has been found in silica-poor volcanics and pegmatites. It occurs with thomsonite and natrolite in vesicles in the volcanic rock of The Nut, near Stanley, Tasmania, Australia, intergrown with natrolite at Don Hill, Tasmania and in drill holes with chabazite and calcite near Guildford, Tasmania.[10] It is also found in nepheline-syenite in the Grenville Geological Province, which is part of the Canadian Shield.[11] The type locality (the place where the mineral was first described) is La Chaux de Bergonne, Gignat, Saint-Germain-Lembron, Puy-de-Dôme, Auvergne, France, and type material from this locality is held at the Natural History Museum, London, England, registration number BM.1930,166.
