    The garnet group consists of a bunch of minerals, but what they have in common is that the atoms that make up the lattice are all arranged in a particular way. If you want to know more, look up "garnet unit cell structure".

    Colour change garnets of the pyrope-spessartine series can sometimes be blue. Although they are very rare.

    Technically wouldn't it be a gemology lesson of the day😂lol and yes they have found a color change garnet that changes to blue. If You want to have fun 😊 and really want to confuse people talk about tourmaline it could be a year long video by itself.

    @Watchkristv Год назад

    Is there a way to tell between garnets and say peridot? Or is there something in the structure that tells someone it’s a garnet of whatever colour?

    • @MCH400
      @MCH400 8 месяцев назад

      Yeah absolutely. They don't form in the same cell structures therefore the final product is a repeating growth pattern that is easily identified. Most minerals have at least one telltale sign where you can look and know .

      I dissagree. The shorts are great, some are like previews for the main event, some are just shorts. Keep up the genuine aspect of what you do Dan. We appreciate it! I found my first picker today!
