Grossular green garnet is a mineral, belonging to the garnet family, composed of aluminum and calcium. The color of grossular garnet can vary from green to yellow, brown to red, orange to black. The variety of grossular garnet with a color identical to emerald is called tsavorite. It comes from the Tsavo Natural Park, located in Kenya. Tsavorite is rich in vanadium and chromium. It is the best known grossular green garnet.

For the record, garnet is a family of minerals from the nesosilicate group, having a cubic crystal system. Gem quality garnets are fine stones. The most common color of garnets is red, but there is a whole range of garnets in different shades. It should be noted that there is no such thing as blue garnet.

The hardness of garnets, 6.5 to 7.0 on the Mohs scale (which ranges from 1 to 10), allows them to be used as an abrasive in industry. Historically, this stone, much more widespread than sapphire or ruby, was used to engrave other stones such as agates, jaspers and ivory.

Furthermore, garnets are used by geologists because they are valuable sources of information as a geothermobarometer. In fact, they make it possible to establish the temperature and/or pressure at which a rock is formed. This tells geologists whether a rock has the conditions to contain diamonds or oil.

Garnet is a mineral known since Antiquity. Roman, Egyptian and Greek civilizations used garnet in the sculpture of faces or animals.
