It crystallizes in the monoclinic system and usually forms massive aggregates of prismatic crystallites or in dull clay masses. It is soft with a Mohs hardness of 2 and a specific gravity of 3. Typically occurs as dull gray-green to bluish green masses. It forms vesicle fillings and linings in altered basaltic lavas. It was first described in 1847 on Monte Baldo, near Verona, Italy.

Common impurities are manganese, calcium and sodium (previously known as natrium).
