Garnet Information
Garnet comes from the Latin word, granatus which means grain. That is because many garnet deposits are small grains of red crystals in or on their host rock.
Physical Properties
The garnets have no cleavage but display a conchoidal fracture and are somewhat brittle and tend to chip easily. The luster is vitreous, inclining to resinous in grossular, andradite, and some almandines. The hardness is 6.5-7.5 in grossular and uvarovite; 6.5-7 in andradite; and 7-7.5 in the pyralspite series.
Garnets are all isometric, and crystals show the common forms in this crystal system, such as the trapezohedron and dodecahedron. Interestingly, the most common isometric forms, the cube and octahedron, are extremely rare in garnet crystals. Garnets may also be massive, granular, and in tumbled pebbles.
