Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox mineral

Edingtonite is a white, gray, brown, colorless, pink or yellow zeolite mineral. Its chemical formula is BaAl2Si3O10·4H2O. It has varieties with tetragonal, orthorhombic or triclinic crystals.[1]

The mineral occurs within cavities in nepheline syenites, carbonatites, in hydrothermal veins and various mafic rocks. It occurs associated with thomsonite, analcime, natrolite, harmotome, brewsterite, prehnite and calcite.[2]

The mineral was first reported by and named for Scottish mineral collector James Edington (1787–1844).[3][2] Other sources (including the mineralogist Haidinger) credit Scottish geologist and mineralogist Thomas Edington (1814-1859).[4] However, as the mineral was named in 1825, the former accreditation must be the true one.[5]
