Apophyllite and Stilbite commonly occur together in cavities and fractures of volcanic rocks. Apophyllite typically forms clear to translucent prismatic or tabular crystals, while Stilbite commonly develops as elongated, radiating, fibrous, or sheaf-like aggregates. These minerals form from mineral-rich hydrothermal fluids circulating through cavities in volcanic rocks over geological time.
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.
