 | "An irony of the name apatite is that apatite is the mineral that makes up the teeth in all vertebrate animals as well as their bones. Get it? Apatite - teeth! Anyway, the name apatite comes from a Greek word meaning to decieve in allusion to its similarity to other more valuable minerals such as olivine, peridot and beryl. Pyrrhotite is magnetic or at least weakly so. Good crystals are rare and should rightly be treasured!" Location: Philips Pyrrhotite Mine, Anthony's Nose, Putnam County, New York
