Abstract

Some minerals which have been referred to as corrensite are considered together with some related minerals. It is suggested that the name corrensite be retained for the original material so described—namely, a I:1 regular interstratification of chlorite and swelling chlorite. The possible constitution of swelling chlorite, its difference from vermiculite, and its relationship to labile chlorites produced synthetically are all discussed.
