Garnet, a term used in geology, one of the major rock-forming minerals in the upper mantle. The shape and color of garnet crystals and pomegranate seeds are very similar, hence the name "garnet". A garnet with a high degree of clarity can be a gemstone. The English name for garnet is Garnet, which evolved from the Latin word "Granatum" and means "like a seed."

Rock crystal is a rare mineral, a kind of gemstone, quartz crystal, belonging to the quartz family in mineralogy. The main chemical component is silica, and the chemical formula is SiO2. Forms colorless and transparent crystals when pure. When it contains trace elements such as Al, Fe, etc., it is pink, purple, yellow, brown, and the like. Different types of color centers are formed by irradiating trace elements to produce different colors such as purple, yellow, brown, pink, and the like. The inclusion of inclusion minerals is called inclusion crystal, such as h

Chemical properties Each carbon atom in the crystal forms a covalent bond with the other four adjacent carbon atoms in the sp3 hybrid orbital, and each four adjacent carbon atoms constitute a regular tetrahedron. The crystal type is a diamond structure, so the unsharp crystal shape is often a regular octahedron. The C-C bond in diamond is very strong. All valence electrons participate in the formation of covalent bonds. There is no free electron, so the hardness of diamond is very large, non-conductive, and the melting point is 3815 °C. The diamond has a flam

It contains Ti and is called blue sapphire. Most natural rubies come from Asia (Myanmar, Thailand, Sri Lanka, China, Xinjiang, China, Yunnan, etc.), Africa, Oceania (Australia) and the Americas (Montana and South Carolina, USA). Natural rubies are rare and therefore precious, but synthetic rubies are not too difficult, so industrial rubies are synthetic. In 1999, a red and b

Spinel is a mineral composed of magnesium aluminum oxide. Because it contains magnesium, iron, zinc, manganese and other elements, they can be divided into many kinds, such as aluminum spinel, iron spinel, zinc spinel, manganese tip. Spar, chrome spinel, etc. Due to the different elements, different spinels can have different colors, such as magnesium spinel between red, blue, green, brown or colorless; zinc spinel is dark green; iron spinel is Black and so on. Spinels are hard, glassy octahedrons or granules and blocks. They appear in igneous rocks, granitic pegmatit

Sapphire is a generic name for corundum gemstones in addition to ruby ​​(Ruby). Its main component is alumina (Al2O3). Blue sapphire is caused by a small amount of titanium (Ti) and iron (Fe) impurities. The color of sapphire can be pink, yellow, green, white, or even in the same stone. Sapphire has been found in Thailand, Sri Lanka, Madagascar, Laos, Cambodia, Changle, Shandong, Hainan, and the stalagmite mountains of Jiangjin, Chongqing.
