Abstract
The relationship between the chemical compositions of mutinaite, terranovaite, and boggsite and the structures of their frameworks is analyzed using published data. The structural components common to these zeolites are identified, and distinctions attributable to the difference in aluminum content are established. The most likely positions of aluminum are determined. Analysis of the zeolite frameworks suggests that it is reasonable to change the orientation of the crystallographic axes of terranovaite.
