History

Selenite was named after Selene the Greek goddess of the Moon, meaning literally the stone of the Moon (not to be confused with albite-orthoclase feldspar moonstone). The name alludes to the moon-like pale reflection the stone can give. The original name was given to the mineral by the Swedish scientist J.G. Wallerius (1709-1785) in his 1747 book Mineralogia, eller Mineralriket. A professor of medicine and chemistry, he was also a mining specialist. His publication is the first one to present minerals systematically according to their chemical properties rather than their external appearance, which opened a new era in mineralogy. He later applied his knowledge to agriculture and is regarded as a founding father of agricultural chemistry
