Apatite is a calcium phosphate mineral with a hardness of 5. Its crystal system is hexagonal (trigonal). Its name is derived from a Greek word meaning 'to deceive'. This is because of the variety of colors and formations in which this stone occurs, making it easy to mistake for other minerals. It can be yellow, blue, green, brown, gray or colorless.
