Where Does Green Apatite Come From?

Apatite is found in many regions around the world, including Brazil, India, and Russia.

Our Green Apatite Crystals, including this piece, are crystals from Madagascar, a country renowned for its high-quality Apatite specimens. 

Madagascar is an island off the coast of Africa known for its unparalleled riches of fossils and crystals. 

What Is Green Apatite Made Of?

Green 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 Green Apatite Stone to be able to cut and polish it into polished crystal shapes such as this polished crystal point. 

Green 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. 

Green 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. 

Green Apatite Crystal Healing Properties

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

This green semi precious stone is thought to be particularly useful in uniting mind, body, and spirit, enabling its users to access the wisdom of their minds and hearts. 

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

Green Apatite Chakras

Green Apatite Crystals resonate powerfully with the Heart Chakra.

Green Apatite: Heart Chakra Stone

When Green Apatite is used as a Heart Chakra Crystal, this green gemstone is believed to nourish and nurture its user, calming them and offering them a sense of compassion and safety during difficult times of emotional overwhelm. 

How Hard Is Green Apatite? 

Green 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.

Green Apatite Crystal Care

Green 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 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 Apatite Crystal, simply use a little bit of water and dry with a cloth afterwards.
