I loved the other Blue Apatite stone you sold me. It had lovely shimmer which was a sweet surprise. I like too your description that this stone helps with sleep and happiness. I love the new Blue Apatite I received today. It has a lovely contrast of colors between baby blue, white, and royal blue. Thank you. And as always thank you for the free shipping, your customer service, the yummy gift of tea, and the paperwork you send. It’s always a pleasure to get a package from you! ♥️

Supply Chain for Blue Apatite

Mine

This Blue Apatite comes from artisanal miners in Anosy, Madagascar. Artisanal mining for Apatite is largely unregulated, but typically has a low environmental impact and would be relatively low risk for miners.

This lapidary hand polishes stones in Antananarivo, Madagascar. It is a woman-owned and family-run business. Factory workers have safe conditions and are paid fairly. The lapidary sells primarily at one major gem show in the United States. Every year the lapidary takes on a major charity project at a rural school. Previous projects have included installing bathrooms, creating a playground, and building a sunshelter for parents.

I first met the owner of the lapidary at the 2006 Gem and Mineral show in Tucson, Arizona. At that time I was working for a crystal shop in Utah and was at Tucson primarily as a “pack mule” to help carry all the stones. It was generally agreed by our crew that the “Madagascar” tent contained the most beautiful stones in the entire show.

In 2014, I embarked on my first buying trip for Moonrise Crystals. The company I knew of only as “Madagascar” was the one company I was most determined to find and buy from. This lapidary company only sells at a handful of major gem shows. The only time they are in the USA is for the Tucson Gem Show. During the rest of the year, the lapidary hand polishes their stock and also does charity work in their local community. They continue to offer some of the most beautiful tumbled stones in the industry and are among my favorite suppliers.

In 2019, Moonrise Crystals and the Madagascar lapidary company joined together to financially support a rural school in Madagascar. In 2022, we plan to build a library with books in Malagassi and French.

Blue Apatite Healing, Mineralogy, and History

Published September 2014  •  Updated August 2024  •  Read Time: 7 minutes
Apatite refers to a group of closely-related phosphate minerals that come in a wide variety of colors.  Apatite is found in all kinds of rocks and is widely mined for industrial uses, particularly as a fertilizer.  Gemmy Blue Apatite is a Fluorapatite and is typically considered to be the most desirable variety.  It has a cheerful and happy-go-lucky energy.  It encourages us to be generous with our money, time, and love and encourages deep friendships.  It is a wonderful talisman for busy parents who tend to give to their children and forget to take care of their own hobbies and interests.   Blue Apatite reminds us to actively live and enjoy our own life!

    Received the package, and the gems are truly beautiful.

    Amazing! Perfect size

  4. Beth S. (Kentucky) –

    This big round blue Apatite is so vivid, so shimmery, so warm and so joyful that I think it’s going to be one of my all-time favorite stones in the universe!

    Thank you for all the hard work you do to find your clients such consistently beautiful crystals and to support the best supplier practices that you can. I remember, years ago now, when I found your site and had for thoughts in quick succession. 1. How beautiful! 2. Expensive, though. 3. But not expensive for what they are. 4. This is my source. That instinct proved even more true than I could have foreseen, and have I ever learned about minerals, mining, and other ethics involved along the way.

  5. Samantha S. (Illinois) (verified owner) –

    I love, love, love them all. Thank you!! The chip in the Vatican Stone is not even noticeable — just adds a little good texture — but I do appreciate you asking me about it before sending it. And the other stones are all simply stunning. I couldn’t be happier with everything. Thank you so much!!

  6. Vivien H (Germany) (verified owner) –

    The crystals are beautiful and the little bag of tea tasted amazing!!!

    I have received the package and appreciate the included tea and information! Love my new stones!
