The Apophyllite crystals display attractive translucency, well-defined natural faces, and bright vitreous luster, with several larger crystals standing prominently above the matrix.

Ideal for display and collection
Apophyllite commonly forms clear, white, pale green, or other light-colored crystals within cavities of volcanic rocks. Stilbite is a zeolite-group mineral that frequently occurs with Apophyllite as white to cream radiating or fibrous aggregates. These minerals form from mineral-rich hydrothermal fluids circulating through cavities and fractures 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.
