No, there's actually over a dozen different types of kryptonite. These are the most powerful, conventionally: Green, red, black and silver. Green is probably the most identifiable to the general public. Its properties weaken and will eventually kill Superman. Red is nuclear fission for superman's Id. It morphs him into a glutton for whim and cruel mayhem. Black: schizophrenia in mineral form. Silver is my number one. It's like Superman's personal Hitchcock-of-the-mind. When exposed to it, he devolves into fractured paranoia. He becomes the irrational. This is the superman I can identify with. The bewildered man.
I guess I should make honourable mention of white kryptonite. It has the power to destroy all plant life. Designed, one supposes, to agent the schemes of garden haters.
