Fluorapophyllite (Rahuri, Maharashtra, India)
Aka Apophyllite-(KF), Fluorapophyllite is a mineral of the apophyllite group. The "fluor" in its name comes from the high amount of fluorine found in it, as compared to other minerals in the apophyllite group.
Fluorapophyllites are very popular among mineral collectors because of the large, well-developed crystals they form and the multiple colours they come in. However, the most desired variation is the green ones, like this specimen, which is found in India.
The crystals on this specimen are large, well-formed and they possess such a glassy, watery luster that they technically fall under the "diamond" apophyllite label too. The ombre of green to hematite brown to clear adds to its beauty, giving dimension to the specimen.
