About Green Apatite
Green Apatite is a vibrant, glassy crystal belonging to the Apatite mineral group, composed primarily of calcium phosphate (Ca₅(PO₄)₃F). Unlike its more commonly known blue counterpart, Green Apatite carries the fresh, life-filled energy of nature—typically ranging in colour from bright yellow-green and olive to deep forest green. Its colour is often attributed to trace elements like iron or manganese within the crystal lattice.
Green Apatite is found in various parts of the world, with notable deposits in Brazil, India, Madagascar, Mexico, and the United States. With a Mohs hardness of 5, it is moderately soft and should be handled with care to avoid scratching or damage.
