Note: Hydrogrossular garnet is a semi-precious stone usually green, pink, or white, generally classified within the grossular garnet species. Most often, hydrogrossular garnets have commercial names related to their resemblance to jade.
Some consider hydrogrossular to be a distinct mineral species, similar to garnets but separate from them. However, most gemologists regard hydrogrossular garnets as a variety of calcium aluminum silicate grossular, in which silica is partially replaced by hydroxide.
The formula of hydrogrossular garnet is written as Ca3Al2(SiO4)3-x(OH)4x or Ca3Al2(SiO4)3-x(H4O4)x.
