Aquamarine is a blue to blue-green variety of beryl (Be₃Al₂Si₆O₁₈), belonging to the cyclosilicate mineral class. It crystallizes in the hexagonal crystal system and typically forms elongated prismatic crystals with vertical growth striations.
The blue color of aquamarine is caused by trace amounts of iron within the beryl crystal structure. Aquamarine is valued both as a gemstone material and as a collectible mineral specimen.
