selenite
Translucent cave mineral
Selenite is a crystalline form of gypsum, typically colorless or translucent with a glassy, pearly luster.
The crystals often form in flat, blade-like shapes and are soft enough to scratch with a fingernail.
Selenite is popular in decorative objects and among those who believe crystals have healing properties.
The name comes from the Greek word for moon, referring to its pale glow.
