Interestingly, as the primary mineral component of human bone, Apatite can occur in stunning colors like blue or yellow, as is the case with this superb, oval gemstone. Hailing from Mexico, the offering weighs 7.31 carats, and features brilliant-cut faceting, which helps to highlight the greenish yellow hue of this wonderfully eye-clean stone. In excellent condition, this would shine 'as is' or would make an excellent piece of custom jewelry.
