The most prominent crystals appear to be \u003cstrong\u003epale green Apophyllite\u003c\/strong\u003e, occurring as translucent blocky to pyramidal crystals across the surface, accompanied by abundant cream to white \u003cstrong\u003eStilbite\u003c\/strong\u003e in bladed, radiating, and sheaf-like formations. Smaller clear to pale crystals fill the spaces between the larger formations, creating a highly textured surface with excellent brilliance. Areas of the dark basalt matrix remain visible around the base, emphasizing the specimen's natural volcanic origin.\u003cspan class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eThe Pune District of Maharashtra is internationally famous for mineral pockets formed within the \u003cstrong\u003eDeccan Traps\u003c\/strong\u003e, enormous basaltic lava flows produced during the late Cretaceous. Cavities within these basalts later filled with mineral-rich fluids, allowing spectacular secondary minerals including stilbite, heulandite, apophyllite, and other associated species to crystallize. Pale green apophyllite together with white or cream stilbite is a particularly characteristic Pune assemblage. Documented examples occur throughout the district, including the Wagholi quarry area and other basalt workings around Pune. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"auto\"\u003eIn metaphysical traditions, Apophyllite is associated with clarity, intuition, spiritual awareness, and meditation, while Stilbite is associated with calm, emotional balance, creativity, and peaceful sleep. Together, the minerals are often used as a symbolic combination for creating a calm and uplifting environment. The impressive size and extensive crystal coverage of this specimen make it especially suited as a focal piece for a mineral collection, meditation space, home, or office.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eApproximate size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 35 x 32 cm (14 x 12.5 in) (width x height, face-on; depth not measured)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQuantity\u003c\/strong\u003e:\u003cstrong\u003e \u003c\/strong\u003e1pc\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eWith this product, you will get the actual stone in the photograph.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"India","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49263300477098,"sku":null,"price":3500.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/7158\/3658\/files\/Zeolite-Specimen-4.jpg?v=1789505071","url":"https:\/\/rubblerockandgem.com\/pa\/products\/stilbite-green-apophyllite-crystal-cluster","provider":"Rubble Rock And Gem","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
