I have some blue apatite cabochons I'd like to mount as part of an indoor sundial. Sources on the web are inconsistent regarding whether this mineral will fade in sunlight. Looking for a definitive answer, if possible. Also, what blue semi-precious stones would be best in this application to resist fading? I also have some lapis lazuli cabs.
