The mineral or gemstone chrysoberyl, not to be confused with beryl, is an aluminate of beryllium with the formula BeAl2O4. Chrysoberyl is transparent to translucent and sometimes chatoyant. An interesting feature of uncut crystals of chyrsoberyl are the cyclic twins called trillings. These twinned crystals have a hexagonal appearance, but are the result of a triplet of twins with each "twin" taking up 120 degrees of the cyclic trilling. The word chrysoberyl is derived from the Greek chrysos, "golden," and beryllos, of uncertain etymology. 1 Occurrence 2 Alexandrite variety 3 Cymophane variety 4 See also 5 References 6 External links Chrysoberyl occurs in granitic rocks, pegmatites and mica schists; often it is found in alluvial deposits.
