Mineralogical Properties

Garnet is not a single mineral species but a group of silicates with a similar crystal structure, occurring in a wide variety of colors – from red to orange to green. The most important representatives of the garnet group are almandine, pyrope, hessonite, spessartine, grossular, andradite, and uvarovite. The red varieties – especially almandine (Fe₃Al₂(SiO₄)₃) and pyrope (Mg₃Al₂(SiO₄)₃) – are the most famous and popular gemstones. The Mohs hardness ranges from 6.5 to 7.5, depending on the variety. Garnet crystallizes in the cubic system and exhibits a characteristic vitreous to resinous luster. Its deep red color is caused by iron and manganese ions in the crystal lattice.
