Mineralogical Specifications:

• Chemical Classification (Composition): Hydrated calcium potassium phyllosilicate with fluorine. Chemical formula: KCa₄Si₈O₂₀(F,OH)·8H₂O.

• Crystal System: Tetragonal. Forms prismatic or pyramidal crystals, often with complex, well-defined terminations.

• Mineral Class: Silicates (Phyllosilicates).

• Rock Formation: Forms as a secondary mineral in cavities and fractures of basaltic volcanic rocks, through low-temperature hydrothermal processes, where solutions rich in silica and calcium alter the original rock.

• Rock Composition: A mineral typically found in altered basalt geodes, frequently associated with zeolites and other secondary minerals.

• Locality of Origin: Occurs predominantly in the large basalt provinces of Pune, India, and is also found in other localities such as New Jersey (USA) and Iceland.

• Rarity: Considered a relatively common mineral in occurrence, however specimens with well-formed, transparent crystallizations of considerable size, like this one, are of medium rarity and high collector value.
