Colour:
Colorless, pale yellow, grayish, grayish white, greenish, light apple-green
Lustre:
Pearly
Hardness:
2½ - 3
Specific Gravity:

Name:
Named in 1843 by Karl Emil Schafhäutl from the Greek, παραγειυ to mislead as the mineral looked like talc, but did not contain Mg.
Mica Group.

An uncommon Na-member of the mica group.
Occurs in low- to medium-grade metamorphic schists and phyllites, in muscovite-biotite gneisses, quartz veins, fine-grained sediments, and glaucophane-bearing rocks.

2M1; 3A polytypes.

Locality ListHide

- This locality has map coordinates listed. - This locality has estimated coordinates. ⓘ - Click for references and further information on this occurrence. ? - Indicates mineral may be doubtful at this locality. - Good crystals or important locality for species. - World class for species or very significant. (TL) - Type Locality for a valid mineral species. (FRL) - First Recorded Locality for everything else (eg varieties). Struck out - Mineral was erroneously reported from this locality. Faded * - Never found at this locality but inferred to have existed at some point in the past (e.g. from pseudomorphs).

All localities listed without proper references should be considered as questionable.
