Fuchsite
Fuchsite was named after the Munich Professor Johann Nepomuk von Fuchs. Fuchsite is a chromium-containing muscovite and belongs to the mica group. Therefore it is often called chrome mica, green mica or chrome muscovite.
It can be found in Russia, Brazil, Simbawe, India or to a lesser extent in the Alps.
Fuchsite appears in intense green and strongly glittering.
