ABOUT THIS GEM: | Garnet |
Garnet usually occurs in metamorphic rock and is common all over the world. It can be found in Australia, Brazil, Sri Lanka, and the Czech Republic. In the United States, gem-quality stones have been located in Arizona, Utah, Alaska, Idaho, and North Carolina. Pegmatites in the Ramona area of San Diego County have yielded crystals as large as 2.5 cm.
Key members of the garnet group are almandine (red to violet-red), spessartine (yellow, rose, or orange to reddish-brown), pyrope (deep red), grossular (white, yellow, yellowish-green, brownish-red, orange, or black), and andradite (colorless, yellow-green, or brown to black). Andradite includes the prized garnet, an emerald green variety called demantoid
