Apophyllite
Apophyllite can be a beautiful mineral, forming in lustrous, transparent crystals that are well-formed and occasionally very large. Though it is found worldwide in volcanic zeolite environments, the Indian traprack quarries have produced enormous quantities of this mineral in all different shapes, sizes, and colors
The gemstones known as Apophyllite belong to a solid solutions series of minerals that includes Fluorapophyllite-(K), Fluorapophyllite-(Na), and Hydroxyapophyllite-(K). Fluorapophyllite-(K) is the most commonly found type.
Apophyllite is a powerful spiritual stone, helping to cleanse your aura and clear negative energy. Apophyllite is a great crystal to meditate with as it is connected with the 8th chakra (also known as the Soul Star) which hovers just above the head. It enables astral travel, enhances spiritual growth and intuition, plus connects us with our spirit guides and guardian angels.
Color: Colorless, white, gray, green, brown. Rarely pink, purple, red, or orange.
Hardness: 4.5-5 on Mohs scale.
Chalcedony
Chalcedony is not scientifically its own mineral species, but rather a form of Quartz in micro-crystalline form. The chemical composition of chalcedony is the same as that of quartz - SiO2, or silicon dioxide. Its crystals are only able to be seen when it is viewed under a microscope. Chalcedony usually occurs in low or medium temperatures, and it is a very commonplace mineral. It is often present in hydrothermal veins, although that is not the only instance of its natural formation. It may also be found in volcanic rocks as fillings in veins, in volcanic bubbles called geodes, in limestone layers, in sandstone as cement, and as an agent of fossilization.
In the strict sense, and in the scientific literature, "chalcedony" designates aggregates of parallelly grown ("fibrous") quartz crystals of microscopic and sub-microscopic size.
The colors of chalcedony are as varied as the shades of quartz, but they do present themselves a bit differently. Chalcedony may be found in multicolored, banded, or colorless variations; it may be red, yellow, orange, blue, green, purple, pink, gray, brown, or white. Depending on the bodycolor of the type of chalcedony, the stone may be opaque or transparent. Most often, its luster is waxy, dull, or vitreous, but rarely, it may appear iridescent.
Color: colorless, white, gray, blue, any color due to embedded minerals, multicolored specimen not uncommon.
