What Is Blue Apatite Made Of?

Blue Apatite is a type of Apatite, which is a phosphate mineral. 

Interestingly, there is another form of Apatite which is a fundamental material of bones and the enamel in our teeth. 

Apatite is a brittle mineral, therefore you need high-quality rough Blue Apatite Stone to be able to cut and polish it into polished crystal shapes such as this polished crystal point. 

Blue Apatite History

The name Apatite comes from a Greek word meaning 'to deceive': the mineral was named this because Apatite is often mistaken for other minerals. 

Blue Apatite Uses 

Apatite is used for various purposes, and is not limited to simply being used as a gemstone.

As Apatite is a phosphate mineral, it is a phosphate rich rock than can be used as source for phosphorus, which is used to make fertiliser. 

This rock is also sometimes ground to create pigments which can be used in painting. 

Apatite is also a minor ore for certain rare metals and materials. 

Blue Apatite Crystal Healing Properties

Blue Apatite is considered to be a deeply spiritual Crystal Healing Stone, and purports to have a calming, cleansing aura.

Many crystal healers believe that Blue Apatite can be used to help one reach clarity of mind and to be able to solve problems and reach goals.

Blue Apatite: Third Eye Chakra Stone

When Blue Apatite is used as a Third Eye Chakra Crystal, it is said to enhance psychic powers and aid lucid dreaming. 

How Hard Is Blue Apatite? 

Blue Apatite measures 5 on the Mohs Scale of Mineral Hardness, which means that it is a somewhat delicate, soft mineral which is susceptible to scratching, although it is a harder mineral than Calcite and Fluorite. 

Great care should be taken not to damage the crystal surface.

Blue Apatite Crystal Care

Blue Apatite is renowned for being a very brittle mineral, and it can therefore easily crack and break if not handled and cleansed with care. 

It is best to avoid soaking Blue Apatite in water because of the risk of water damage, but if you do, minimise the risk of damage by only submerging the stone in water for a short period of time and avoiding using salt water. 

To cleanse your Blue Apatite Crystal, simply use a little bit of water and dry with a cloth afterwards.
