The correct mineralogical name for "emerald mica" or "chrome muscovite" is Fuchsite, a chromium-rich green variety of the common mica mineral muscovite, colored by chromium, as in genuine emeralds. Still, it's a mica, not beryl. While sometimes called "emerald mica" or "chrome mica," it is scientifically known as Fuchsite, a sparkling green sheet silicate. 
 
Why the Confusion?
 
It's called "emerald mica" because its vibrant green color comes from chromium, the same element that colors emeralds (beryl), but Fuchsite is a mica, not beryl.
It's often found in matrix (rock) with other minerals, sometimes even genuine emeralds, leading to trade names like "Emerald Mica" or "Emerald in Matrix".
