Garnet is any of a group of hard, glassy minerals. There are six major types: almandine, andradite, grossularite, pyrope, spessartite, and uvarovite. Garnets are composed of silica and such elements as aluminium, calcium, iron, magnesium, and manganese. They range in colour from red, brown, and black to various shades of yellow and green. Garnet is found chiefly in metamorphic rocks. One well-known gemlike type is the red pyrope, which is often sold as an imitation ruby. Most other garnets are used as abrasives for grinding and polishing. Garnets are found throughout the world. Those of gemlike quality are mined chiefly in central Europe, Russia, and South Africa. Garnets are associated with the color red, but they actually are available in a variety of colors. Their colors range from yellow orange to red orange an are frequently quite vivid and striking in appearance. These gemstones are durable and well suited for virtually all jewelry settings.
