About this specimen

Green Apophyllite Crystal on Stilbite Matrix | Natural Indian Mineral Specimen | 9×4×3 cm | 60g

This particular Green Apophyllite specimen shows a prominent pale green crystal set upon a contrasting white Stilbite-rich matrix. Specimens of this association are characteristic of the Deccan Trap basalts of western India, where mineral-filled cavities allowed successive generations of Apophyllite and zeolite minerals to crystallize together. The Apophyllite develops with a translucent green body, distinct crystal faces and natural internal textures, while the fine white Stilbite matrix forms a contrasting crystalline surface around it. Comparable Green Apophyllite-on-Stilbite specimens are documented from Maharashtra, including Pune District, where this association occurs within basalt-hosted cavities.
