Apophyllite
Apophyllite is a group of hydrated silicate minerals that belong to the phyllosilicate family. They are usually found in volcanic or metamorphic rocks, and are prized for their clear or translucent appearance. The name "apophyllite" comes from the Greek words "apo" meaning "away from" and "phyllon" meaning "leaf," in reference to the mineral's tendency to flake or peel away from its matrix when heated.
Apophyllite is found in several different colours, including white, green, yellow, and pink. The green variety is particularly valued for its lush, vibrant colour, while the clear and white varieties are prized for their translucency and sparkling lustre.
