STONE DETAILS
Apatite The word Apatite comes from the Greek “apatw” (fraud) because it is often amalgamated with other minerals. Apatite is a calcium phosphate mineral, which contains hydroxyl or fluoride or chloride ions (OH, F, Cl). So, three different groups of apatite mineral are formed (hydroxylapatite, fluorapatite and chlorapatite), depending on the type of the ion in its chemical composition. Apatite can be green, blue, yellow, brown, purple, pink or colorless. It is characterized by the hexagonal crystal system and the hardness of 5 on the Mohs scale.
