The Aquamarine is the blue variety of the silicate mineral beryl and therefore, like beryl, crystallizes in the hexagonal crystal system with the chemical composition Be₃Al₂[Si₆O₁₈].
Aquamarine gets its blue color from the presence of foreign iron ions in various lattice positions. As an allochromatic (foreign-colored) mineral, however, aquamarine's streak color is always white.
Due to its high Mohs hardness of 7.5 to 8 and its often well-formed, clear crystals, aquamarine is primarily used for jewelry. Aquamarines are found in pegmatites, especially granites, but also in metamorphic rocks such as gneiss and as mineral placer in river sediments.

Like all beryls, aquamarine can often be found in the form of well-developed and transparent crystals, sometimes several decimeters long and thick.

In the world of gemstones, aquamarine is often revered as a healing stone . It is said to promote clarity , serenity , and communication . Its calming energy evokes the gentle sound of waves and the vastness of the ocean.

Aquamarine is a symbol of natural beauty and inner strength . Its pristine form reminds us that true treasures are often found in their raw state .
