A pseudomorph occurs when one mineral replaces another but retains the original mineral's crystal structure. In the case of turquoise after apatite pseudomorph, turquoise  replaces apatite, but it still retains apatite's crystal shape.

This process leads to a visually fascinating specimen where the exterior shape looks like apatite crystals, but the composition and color are distinctly turquoise, often with the bright blue or green shades typical of turquoise.
