Glauconite: Mineral information, data and localities.
Glauconites are dioctahedral interlayer-deficient micas (as are illite s). Typically found as rounded aggregates or "pellets" of very fine grained scaly particles, having a blue-green to yellow-green color. True glauconites may have been found in other environments, but, before 1998, may have been classed as

Glauconite - ScienceDirect
Mineral glauconite in sensu lato is a random interstratification of nonexpanding 10A˚layers and expanding montmorillonitic layers. The amount of expandable layers may be over 50 % but it is customary to restrict the name mineral glauconite in sensu stricto to varieties with less than 10 % expandable layers.

Glauconite SpringerLink
Greenish sand-sized grains described as ‘glauconite’ are usually mixtures of minerals rather than single mineral species (Burst, 1958 a; 1958 b), although a constituent common in such grains is the mineral glauconite, a hydrated iron-rich micaeous clay mineral of the illite group (K Mg (Fe, Al) (SiO 3) 6.3H 2 O).

Glauconite - NASA/ADS
The term glauconite has been employed in two senses. It has been used most commonly as a morphological term for sand-sized greenish grains found in sedimentary rocks, but also as a name for a specific mineral species, a hydrated iron-rich micaceous clay mineral. The two uses are not synonymous, since not all morphological glauconite consists exclusively of mineral glauconite, nor is the latter ...

The Mineralogy of Glauconite SpringerLink
1975-8-1 The mineral in monomineralic glauconite pellets is an iron-rich mixed-layer illite-smectite (here called glauconite), often composed almost entirely of illite layers. The nature of the interlayering is closely analagous to that of aluminous illite-smectite and varies with the proportions of the layer types: >30 per cent smectite, randomly interstratified; 15–30 per cent smectite, allevardite ...

In Wisconsin glauconite forms thick beds within the Cambrian Lone Rock Group and is also found in lesser amounts in the Mt. Simon Sandstone, Eau Claire Formation and Wonewoc Formation. It can on occasion be found in many other Paleozoic clastic units in the state. Only a few representative localities for the mineral will be described below.
