Apatite is the most common phosphate mineral, and is the main source of the phosphorus required by plants. The bones and teeth of most animals, including humans, are composed of calcium phosphate, which is the same material as Apatite. (These biological Apatites are almost exclusively the Hydroxylapatite type.) Chemical Formula.

Apatite can well preserve the compositional information of its host magmas and thus is widely used to study the processes during magma evolution and related mineralization (e.g. Chu et al. 2009; Pan et al. 2016; Chelle-Michou and Chiaradia 2017; Xing et al. 2020).This study shows the mineralogical and geochemical characteristics of …
