Interesting Facts
Apophyllite is highly prized for its glassy transparency and well-formed crystal structures, often found in zeolite-rich regions. Mordenite, a fibrous zeolite mineral, adds a unique textural contrast to this specimen, forming soft, cotton-like clusters that beautifully complement the structured geometry of the apophyllite. Indian basaltic deposits, particularly in Maharashtra, are world-renowned for producing some of the finest apophyllite specimens.
