Mineralogical Properties

Apatite is a calcium phosphate (Ca₅(PO₄)₃(F,Cl,OH)) and belongs to the group of phosphates. Its name derives from the Greek "apatao" (to deceive) - because due to its high color diversity, it was and still is easily confused with other minerals. Apatite indeed shows an extraordinary color palette: colorless, brown, yellow, blue, green, rarely also pink and violet. The yellowish-green variety is also called "asparagus stone".
