Aquamarine is a blue or blue-green variety of the mineral beryl, valued as a semi-precious gemstone. Its name derives from the Latin words for water and sea, reflecting its ocean-like colour. Aquamarine is typically found in pegmatite rocks and is commonly used in jewellery including rings, necklaces and earrings. The stone ranks 7.5 to 8 on the Mohs hardness scale, making it suitable for most jewellery applications.
