Augelite is a mineral composed of aluminium phosphate, represented by the formula Al2(PO4)(OH)3. Its coloration can range from colorless to white, yellow, or rose, and it crystallizes in a monoclinic system. The mineral was first identified by Christian Wilhelm Blomstrand in 1868 at the Västanå iron mine in Scania, Sweden, and its name is derived from the Greek word for "brightness," reflecting its pearly luster. Augelite typically forms through the metamorphism of phosphate-rich peraluminous sediments and within high-temperature hydrothermal ore deposits.
