The Aquamarine is the blue variety of the silicate mineral beryl and, like it, crystallizes in the hexagonal crystal system with the chemical composition Be₃Al₂[Si₆O₁₈].
Aquamarine gets its blue color from foreign additions of divalent and trivalent iron ions in different lattice positions. However, as an allochromatic (foreign colored) mineral, aquamarine's line 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 processed into jewelry stones. Aquamarines are found in pegmatites, especially in granites, but also in metamorphic rocks such as gneiss and as mineral soap 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.
