Apatite Tumbled Pendant

Apatite is noted for its colourful heterogeneity. The stone may boast all the way from colourless to white, yellow, pink, grey, green, blue or purple and brown. Such an array of colours often confused mineralogists in determining the minerals. Even apatite’s name, which comes from the Greek word apatein, means to deceive or to be misleading. If we look at its chemical structure, apatite is the most common phosphate.
