About this specimen

Natural Apophyllite on Matrix – 30 g

This natural Apophyllite specimen features a cluster of clear to pale blue-white Apophyllite crystals growing across a natural white mineral matrix. The crystals display attractive translucency, well-defined faces, and bright vitreous luster, with several prominent larger crystals surrounded by smaller intergrown formations. The contrasting fine-textured matrix enhances the crystal growth and gives the specimen a distinctive natural collector appearance.

Geological Note

Apophyllite commonly forms as clear, white, or pale-colored crystals in cavities and fractures of volcanic rocks. It develops from mineral-rich hydrothermal fluids and can occur as well-formed prismatic or tabular crystals, often in clusters and alongside zeolite-group minerals such as Stilbite and Heulandite.

Please Note: Natural mineral specimens may naturally contain variations in color, crystal formation, transparency, texture, inclusions, fractures, cavities, chips, luster, and matrix. Each specimen is naturally formed and may differ slightly from the photographed piece.
