Both smectite and zeolite can form at elevated temperatures (hydrothermal)
during the palagonitization process. Presumably palagonite continues to alter to
smectite and zeolite after cooling. The two different responses of the lava to water
are ...

they have a special word for the Palagonite Series. It is called "mdberg" in
Icelandic, for which the translation of "tuff mountain" is given. In view of the fact,
that the genesis of the "mdberg" mountains in Iceland presents a different
problem ...

The end result of the palagonitization is called palagonite as well as secondary
minerals like zeolites and smectites. Palagonite is a term used very differently by
various authors but it usually refers to a yellow-orange, amorphous material that ...

Soils of Volcanic Regions in Europe
Volcanic glasses are inherently unstable and therefore tend to crystallise or
devitrify. They decompose more readily than mineral phases they are associated
with. Palagonite is known to be the primary alteration product of sideromelane.

The glass is invariably partly altered, generally to yellowish-brown or orange
palagonite. The palagonite is partly massive and isotropic and partly in minute
doubly refracting fibers. The refractive index of the palagonite was found to range
in ...

Palagonite evidently comprises spherical structures 20–60 nm in diameter, which
have been interpreted as “microcrystallite precursors of smectite” (Stroncik and
Schmincke, 2002)—that is, palagonite would seem to be a nanocrystalline ...

He named the rock palagonite after the nearby town of Palagonia, and by
chemical analysis determined it as one unusually rich in water and iron, with
about 12–23 wt% water. He became curious as to the rock's origin, and noting
that it was ...
