Apophyllite is a hydrated potassium calcium silicate mineral that crystallizes in the form of pyramidal structures, cubic crystals, as well as druzy on a matrix or other minerals. The common color of Apophyllite is clear or white, although it can also be found as grey, yellow, red, and green. Green Apophyllite is the rarest color of them all.
Stilbite is a sodium calcium hydrous aluminum silicate that is a member of the family. This mineral crystallizes in the form of thin flattened plates, tabular crystals, as well as aggregates. Its commonly found in association with Apophyllite and Heulandite within basalt and other volcanic rock.
