Fluorapatite is a geode mineral from Frozen Geodes and Omni Geodes. It is one of the better-paying minerals in a Frozen Geode, level with Ghost Crystal and twice the price of Esperite. Its first job is a museum donation, since every new mineral moves Gunther's collection towards its next reward. At the Sewing Machine it makes the Bandana Shirt, and it also works as a purple dye. The Wizard likes it, while nearly everyone else in town dislikes it.
The in-game description reads: Small amounts are found in human teeth.
Location
Fluorapatite only comes from geodes. A Frozen Geode has roughly one chance in thirty of holding it. An Omni Geode can hold it too, but it shares its odds with the minerals of every geode type, so each one is a far weaker chance.
Frozen Geodes drop from rocks on floors 41 to 79 of The Mines. Rocks on the Farm also drop them in Winter. Fishing Treasure Chests contain them now and then, and a full Ice Pip Fish Pond produces them. Sebastian also sells them for Calico Eggs at the Desert Festival whenever he has a booth there.
Clint at the Blacksmith opens each geode for 25g. A Geode Crusher does the job at home once Clint's Cave Patrol special order has unlocked it. The odds stay the same on lucky and unlucky days.
Prices
Fluorapatite sells for eight times the cost of cracking its geode. Along with Fairy Stone and Ghost Crystal, it is one of the finds that makes a stack of Frozen Geodes worth opening. Fluorapatite earns thirty percent more after the Gemologist profession is chosen at Mining level 10.
A Crystalarium can copy Fluorapatite in about three and a half days. That earns close to 58g a day. An Amethyst earns nearly twice as much in the same machine, so Fluorapatite is a weak choice for a Crystalarium.
Uses
Donating the first Fluorapatite to Gunther adds it to the museum's mineral collection. Mineral donations unlock rewards at set totals. Early rewards are furniture such as the Standing Geode and the Singing Stone. The Crystal Chair comes at 41 minerals and a Crystalarium at 50.
Putting Fluorapatite and Cloth in the Sewing Machine makes the Bandana Shirt. Fluorapatite also works as a purple dye in the dye pots at Emily and Haley's house.
Gifts
The Wizard likes Fluorapatite.
The shop owners Clint, Gus, Marnie, Pierre, Robin and Willy all dislike Fluorapatite. The Dwarf, Krobus and Sandy dislike it too. The same goes for Abigail, Alex, Elliott, Emily, Haley, Harvey, Leah, Maru, Penny, Sam, Sebastian and Shane, and for Jas, Leo and Vincent. Caroline, Demetrius, Evelyn, George, Jodi, Kent, Lewis, Linus and Pam also dislike it.
Cheaper minerals from the same geode please the Wizard just as much, so Fluorapatite is usually better sold.
Anyone who wants the Bandana Shirt should keep a second Fluorapatite after the museum donation. The Sewing Machine uses up the stone when it makes the shirt.
