SITE
Although garnet has the same crystal structure (cubic) as diamond, it belongs to a separate group of minerals. It differs from diamond in its chemical composition, variety of colors, and properties. Although some types of red garnet are commonly found on all continents, other garnets, such as orange spessartines and hessonites or green demantoids and tsavorites, are much rarer, and the number of their deposits corresponds to that. There are more than 20 varieties of pomegranates in total, boasting all shades of color.
HISTORY AND TRADITION
This jewel has a history of less than one century; it was discovered in the 1960s. in the XX century by Campbell Bridges. This English geologist conducted scientific research in Tanzania. They proposed that in the depths of the African continent there is a mineral unknown to humanity. However, the mineralogist was not able to prove this hypothesis immediately. Tanzanian authorities did not permit the exploration of the mineral. The enterprising man then moved to Kenya. He acted and found a green gemstone near Tsavo National Park. That is why the crystal got such an unusual name - favorite. Campbell Bridges patented his discovery and became the owner of the only deposit of this beautiful stone in the world. Until now, the African mine has been supplying the global market with gemstones.
- In the 80s. in the XNUMXs. the jewel appeared in European states in the century. Here the stone was called tsavorite. Jewelers grew so fond of the mineral that craftsmen at Tiffany also began making precious objects from it. And then the world-famous company organized presentations of the tsavorite accessories collections. Thanks to this support, the jewel became popular in America.
- The crystal is mainly cut as a cabochon. The result is beautiful stones that are hard to look away from.
The name garnet is derived from the Latin word "granum", which means "grain". It is based on the typically rounded shape of garnet, which resembles pomegranate seeds.
For centuries, garnet was considered the stone of all pilgrims and travelers. According to legend, Noah used on his ark a lamp made of garnet, which helped him navigate the ship through the darkness of the evening. Many brave explorers and travelers wore garnet as a talisman. It was said that garnets illuminate the night and protect their wearer from evil. In antiquity and in the Middle Ages, people believed that the universe was reflected in gemstones. Garnet has therefore, since those times, been associated with the planets Mars, Mercury, and Pluto. In addition, garnet became the official birthstone for the month of January.
PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
- cubic system
- low color dispersion - up to 0.03
- density 4 grams per cubic centimeter
- with a hardness of 8 units on the Mohs scale
The refraction of light rays does not exceed 1.8 units.
CHEMICAL PROPERTIES
The chemical formula of Kenyan crystal looks like this - Ca3Al2 (SiO4) 3. Mineralogists call the composition of tsavorite unique. The main components of the gemstone are silicon, calcium, and aluminum. Chromium and vanadium determine the intensity of the green color.
CRYSTALLOGRAPHIC PROPERTIES
