Zeolite CAS 1318-02-1

Zeolite is a general term for various lattice like minerals composed of aluminosilicates. It is a vast family, with 40 natural zeolites discovered worldwide and 150 artificially synthesized ones. The color of zeolite is generally light gray, sometimes flesh red. Holding it in my hand clearly feels lighter than ordinary stones, because the zeolite is filled with tiny pores and channels inside, much more complex than a beehive.
