Cavansite: Associated minerals & Overview

Cavansite, named for its chemical composition of calcium vanadium silicate, is a deep blue hydrous calcium vanadium phyllosilicate mineral, occurring as a secondary mineral in basaltic and andesitic rocks along with a variety of zeolite minerals. Its blue coloring comes from vanadium, a metal ion. Discovered in 1967 in Malheur County, Oregon, cavansite…
