Vitreous, Sub-Vitreous, Resinous, Waxy, Greasy

Transparency:

Transparent, Translucent

Comment:

Rarely as strong vitreous luster as quartz

Colour:

Almost always colorless or white, also light gray, light pink, light blue, pale violet

Comment:

May be slightly pink due to montmorillonite inclusions

Comment:

Very brittle when compared with quartz; frequently shows splintery broken fragments

Density:

2.9 g/cm3 (Measured) 2.96 g/cm3 (Calculated)

Pleochroism:

Non-pleochroic

Comments:

Refractive index 1.508-1.528

Mindat Formula:

(Cs,Na)2(Al2Si4O12) · 2H2O

Common Impurities:

Fe,Ca,K,Rb

Class (H-M):

m_3_m _(_4/_m_32/m ) - Hexoctahedral

Cell Parameters:

a = 13.67 Å

Morphology:

Almost always massive, rarely in trapezohedral or cubic crystals usually with both forms present, but either form may be dominant.

Comment:

A monoclinic variety (C2/c) has also been reported (Kamiya et al., 2008). Pollucite may probably be (as is analcime) cubic, tetragonal, orthorhombic, monoclinic or triclinic, depending on ordering.
