Green Apophyllite on Stilbite — Natural Indian Mineral Specimen
This attractive natural mineral specimen features a cluster of green Apophyllite crystals associated with Stilbite, creating a classic and highly collectible Indian zeolite-mineral combination. The green Apophyllite provides the main visual focus, with its naturally developed crystal faces, attractive luster, and translucent to transparent character, while the Stilbite association adds contrast, texture, and depth to the formation.
Indian Apophyllite and Stilbite specimens are particularly well known from the Deccan Trap region of Maharashtra, where mineral-filled cavities in basalt have produced many exceptional collector specimens. Comparable examples are documented from Pune, Jalgaon, and Nashik, with green Apophyllite occurring alongside white, cream, or peach Stilbite.
This specimen measures approximately 8 × 5 × 3 cm and weighs approximately 150 grams, making it a convenient small-cabinet display specimen. Its natural crystal growth, variations in transparency, luster, inclusions, contact areas, and minor irregularities contribute to its individual character.
A suitable addition to a mineral collection, Indian zeolite collection, Apophyllite collection, or geological display.
