La garniérite peut être commodément considérée comme un chrysotile nickélifère [...] La couleur est d'un très beau vert «nickel», et naturellement, bien qu'il s'agisse d'un corps en toute rigueur monoclinique [...] on est en présence d'une masse amorphe assez tendre, et dont la densité varie beaucoup avec les teneurs croissantes en Fe [fer] et Ni [nickel]. La garniérite est le minerai classique de nickel de la Nouvelle-Calédonie. 2, record 1, French, - garni%C3%A9rite
