The Almandine Garnet Group is a collection of minerals known for their deep red color, primarily composed of iron aluminum silicate. Almandine is the most common member of this group and is often used in jewelry due to its attractive appearance and durability. These garnets are typically found in metamorphic rocks and can also occur in alluvial deposits. In addition to almandine, the garnet group includes other varieties such as Pyrope, Spessartine, and Grossular. Each type has distinct chemical compositions and colors, ranging from green to orange. The Almandine Garnet Group is valued not only for its beauty but also for its industrial applications, including abrasives and water filtration.
