Pentagonite
Pentagonite is a rare phyllosilicate mineral with formula CaSi4O10·4H2O. Its characteristic blue color is due to the presence of the vanadyl cation in its crystal lattice. The oxidation state of vanadium in the vanadyl cation is +4; therefore, it is a divalent cation.
It was named for the unusual twinning called a fiveling with an apparent five-fold symmetry. It is a dimorph of cavansite.
Pentagonite was first described in 1973 for an occurrence in Lake Owyhee State Park, Malheur County, Oregon. It has also been reported from the Pune district of India. It occurs as fracture and cavity fillings in tuff and basalt. It occurs with cavansite, heulandite, stilbite, analcime, apophyllite and calcite.
