Abstract
Rare zeolite levynite was obtained for the first time on the basis of natural minerals halloysite, obsidian and dolomite. The mineral was studied using derivatographic, X-ray phase, X-ray spectral and electron microscopic analysis methods. Dehydration-rehydration and cation exchange characteristics were studied; the oxygen volume of the resulting product was calculated.
