This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.88.0.0/16 has been blocked by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~}}. You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 10:02, 6 June 2025. Your current IP address is 54.88.108.5.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

== Commercial advertising pages on Wikipedia ==
I am basically going through and eliminating pages of commercial sites which have been appended onto mineral Wikipedia pages to pull viewers off Wikipedia. Yes indeed, they have a partial page or so of standard mineralogical data or other basic information - nothing new or unusual, simple textbook stuff easily available. Then with their bit of info, they have a whole bunch of ad links, product offering links and other links intended to pull users and add Google PageRank to their sites. This is a commercial use of Wikipedia for advertising purposes, which is not allowed. In spite of having a little bit of data, these links fall under the definition of spam. Almost all these same Wiki pages also have a link to mindat.org - a non commercial site with exactly the same basic mineralogical info. Many of the Wikipedia pages themselves have just as much info as the ad/spam pages. - Chris

==Groups==
Are the groups at <nowiki>http://www.mineralminers.com/html/garminfo.htm</nowiki> correct? If so, I'll put the garnet groups into those subgroups. [[Pyralspite garnet]] redirects here, and though we never use the term, the three members of that group are covered here of course. If that link is correct, can someone fix this article to reflect the grouping, or let me know and I will? Same for [[Ugrandite garnet]]. Both of these come from the info at scienceworld.wolfram.com. Thanks - [[User:Taxman|Taxman]] <sup><small>[[User talk:Taxman|Talk]]</small></sup> 18:50, August 25, 2005 (UTC)
:Looked good to me - so I did it :-). Check it over for glitches. Do need to redo the reference section now, tho' I added Mineral miners link. Probably could expand the garnet structure as a separate section. [[User:Vsmith|Vsmith]] 00:47, 26 August 2005 (UTC)

== AB or XY? ==

Is there any reason to substitute AB for the positions with X and Y? In Germany, the positions in lattices of this type are traditionally referred to as A and B, but I don't know how this is in the English speaking world.[[User:Cato82|Cato82]] 21:18, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

:Only to avoid some confusion, after anon editors replaced the ''A'' with ''Al'' on at least two occasions I thought ''X and Y'' might be more ''generic'' appearing and less prone to confusion by the average reader/editor. I would have no objections to putting it back to A - B. [[User:Vsmith|Vsmith]] 23:25, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

:If so, add both conventions then? -- [[User:Ktsquare|Ktsquare]] [[User_talk:Ktsquare|(talk)]] 02:47, 16 January 2022 (UTC)

== Color Description ==

At one point this page describes pyrope garnets as being "ruby-red" in color.  Red garnets are a deeper red than rubies (making it look darker).  I'm not trying to be nitpicky but all that description does is fuel people who think garnets and rubies are the same thing (as someone born in January I beg to differ). [[User:Lollipop09|Lollipop09]] 01:59, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

Sorry, I went to the article and changed it to just "red" myself.  Garnets and rubies are still not the same thing. [[User:Lollipop09|Lollipop09]] 01:25, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

==Variety vs. Species==

This article uses the term variety (mostly) when talking about the different types of garnet group minerals.  In actuality it would be more correct to differentiate between the species of garnet (andradite, spessartine, grossular, etc) from the varieties of the species of garnet (hessonite, melonite, etc) as there is a significant difference between the two groups see www.mindat.org for the specifics of the different species, their relationships, and the correct current names (almandine not almandite, spessartine a=not spessatite, etc...) [[User:Kevmin|Kevmin]] 01:53, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

==Infobox Color==
I have looked through both Wikiprojects, Gemology and Jewelry; Rock and Minerals, and have found no consensus for a specific color for the infoboxes.  At this point the large majority of Mineral articles that have infoboxes use the default ?lilac? purple.  At the same time the Gem articles are rather sporadic and seem to follow the color of the Gem in question.  I would suggest having a discussion regarding a specific color for all mineral articles, but seeing as how the R&M group is not very active, I think I'm about the only one that is doing anything, It is probably best for the G&J project to take the initiative for standardization. In the interim I  shall change alternate color boxes back to default in preparation for an end result.

== "Abrasive garnet" section needs cleanup ==

Just a heads up if anyone is working on this article: the "abrasive garnet" section could use some trimming for clarity and conciseness, and has nonstandard capitalization. [[User:Crystal whacker|Crystal whacker]] ([[User talk:Crystal whacker|talk]]) 00:17, 26 November 2008 (UTC)

:Cleanup is pretty much complete, though I am sure some parts can and should be re-worded.  I may continue to work on that in bits and pieces.  I removed the cleanup tag, and placed a citations tag, as that entire section does not have a single in-line citation.  [[User:Theseeker4|Theseeker4]] ([[User talk:Theseeker4|talk]]) 14:27, 26 November 2008 (UTC)
::You did a good job, Theseeker4, and thanks for letting me know about it.  I fixed two more minor errors in grammar.  The main concern, as you state, is that there is no inline citation at all.  The writing is also of medium quality: it starts by distinguishing water jet grade from cutting grade (or whatever it was), but then it talks about various kinds of abrasive garnet and where they are found without clarifying the original distinction further.  It doesn't give much context, and reads as if an expert on the subject is trying to communicate with other experts, not with newcomers to the subject.  So there's still some way to go. [[User:Crystal whacker|Crystal whacker]] ([[User talk:Crystal whacker|talk]]) 18:09, 26 November 2008 (UTC)
:::Thanks.  I am quite poor at catching my own mistakes at the time I am writing something, so often there will be spelling and/or grammer errors in what I write, but that is why we have multiple editors, lol.  I agree with your assessment, and would add that the original author may not have had English as a first language, so some of the distinctions he/she may have been trying to make were probably lost.  I tried basically to correct grammer, clarify sentences and correct capitalization/punctuation, without expanding on what is said and without being able to judge the truthfullness of the statements.  The entire section may deserve a rewrite, especially to go into more detail about the different uses of the grades, not just the relative quality and merits of the sources.  I just corrected what I could in the time available, and will continue to monitor it and possibly add/rewrite as necessary.

== Mineral vs. Crystal Type ==

I noticed that the article defines garnets as (X<sub>3</sub>Y<sub>2</sub>(SiO<sub>4</sub>)<sub>3</sub>), although there are plenty of known garnets that do not contain silicon.  See, for example, S. Geller, C.E. Miller, and R.G Treuting "New Synthetic Garnets" in Acta Crystallographica Vol. 13 Iss. 3 pgs. 179-186 (1960) where 23 types of garnet with general formula X3Y2Ge3O12 are reported.  From the point of view of a solid state chemist, silicate garnets are a specific instance of the more general class of chemicals with the formula A3M2X3O12 and the crystal structure described in the article.

My question is should the more general system of garnets be its own article, leaving this one as the mineralogically interesting silicate garnets, or should the "synthetic garnets" section be expanded (and renamed) to fill in the rest of the gaps?  The current article is quite nice as it is within its scope, but the "Synthetic Garnet" section feels somewhat out of place in part because it includes chemical structures that contradict the general formula given in the box at the top of the article.  More specifically, it sort of feels like this section is a dumping ground for the bits of information don't fit within the scope of the rest of the article.

I am happy to do what is needed once I know what the editors prefer. Thanks [[User:JaredAllred|JaredAllred]] ([[User talk:JaredAllred|talk]]) 14:44, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

:I agree that there are a variety of synthetic crystals based on the [[garnet structure]] which now redirects to garnet. This article should stay focused on the mineralogy and the synthetic garnets should be described in either that or an article titled [[synthetic garnet]] as there should be sufficient info available for a separate article. [[User:Vsmith|Vsmith]] ([[User talk:Vsmith|talk]]) 15:35, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

::Ok, I will make a few changes to the "Synthetic Garnet" section to make it fit better with the rest of the article and if I have time I will start a stub for the garnet structure.  Thanks [[User:JaredAllred|JaredAllred]] ([[User talk:JaredAllred|talk]]) 18:12, 28 July 2009 (UTC)

:::::::::Thanks for taking the time to find the pictures.  What i understand at present, is that (nearly?) all of the larger garnet-group "T" elements (Si; Al, V, Fe,Te) can form silicon-like quadruply positively charged ions, most even of somewhat similar physical size (60-70pm):
::::::::::http://www.saylor.org/site/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/Ionic-Radius.pdf
:::::::::For clarity, although (SiO<sub>2</sub>) physically forms tetrahedra, if you count atoms, the ratio of Oxygen-to-Silicon is 2-to-1 (every Oxygen is doubly counted, for two Silicons' tetrahedra).  If you have N<sub>Si</sub> Silicons; and N<sub>O</sub> Oxygens; then every Silicon forms 4 (single) bonds; and every Oxygen forms 2 (single) bonds; and every bond is between a Silicon and an Oxygen; so the total number of bonds made by Silicons equals the total number of bonds made by Oxygens.  Thus, 4N<sub>Si</sub> = 2N<sub>O</sub>, and so there are twice as many Oxygens as Silicons, in the bulk sample.  i understand, that the actual chemical ratio of Silicon-to-Oxygen in quartz is 2:1.[[Special:Contributions/66.235.38.214|66.235.38.214]] ([[User talk:66.235.38.214|talk]]) 16:06, 19 October 2012 (UTC)

== GARNET USE IN AEROSPACE ==

Garnet has its uses as an abrasive but it is also used as a counter abrasive in aircraft and aerospace applications. The world's best and hardest garnet comes from the Emerald creek garnet mine in N.Idaho near Fernwood. It is shipped for all applications especially water jet and sandblasting like other sites but is being bought up at an ever increasing rate because of its rarity and finite amount and is becoming more difficult to mine. Their are buyers that are stockpiling it because of this. Its uses in aerospace are for one as a coating on leading wing surfaces by combing it with a polymer. As high speed aircraft pass through the air they encounter fine dust which acts as a sandblaster and eventually erodes leading edges of wing and tail sections. This polymer protects these surfaces as if they are coated with diamond the next hardest stone. The military has other uses as well and has ordered the site to remain operational during the current CCP virus pandemic. Emerald creek also has a public dig site operated by the Forest Service where quality gemstones can be dug for a small fee. It is here where the prized 6 ray specimens can be found in quantity compared to the rest of the world where this type(almandine)is absent or extremely rare.[[Special:Contributions/184.63.66.43|184.63.66.43]] ([[User talk:184.63.66.43|talk]]) 19:46, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
