In this episode, join Emily Coulter of Crystal Case Studies for a deep-dive into Apophyllite. Journey to India and uncover its geological and chemical setting in one of the largest volcanic features on Earth; the Deccan Traps.

Drawing on a seven-year academic foundation in Geology and a lifelong passion for crystals, Emily will delve into the science behind Apophyllite formation; from gargantuan rivers of fire spanning a subcontinent, a volcanic eruption that signaled doom for the Dinosaurs, to the vital impact of the nourishing Monsoon season on a parched volcanic landscape.

This talk was originally given at the London Gem & Mineral Show, and was re-recorded especially for the podcast. Please do subscribe for more talks from the London Gem & Mineral Show.
