Note: Hydrogrossular garnet is a semi-precious stone typically green, pink, or white, generally classified within the garnet grossular 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 different 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 grossular garnet is written as Ca3Al2(SiO4)3-x(OH)4x or Ca3Al2(SiO4)3-x(H4O4)x.
