Interesting Facts
Apophyllite’s high natural reflectivity is due to its water content, giving it an almost diamond-like brilliance.
Heulandite, a zeolite mineral, is known for its soft, layered structure and is commonly found alongside apophyllite in India’s famous mineral deposits.
Peach stilbite forms in delicate fan-like clusters, adding a gentle contrast to the bold geometry of apophyllite crystals.
India’s Deccan Traps region is one of the most prolific sources of fine apophyllite specimens, making this a rare and sought-after find.
