| ⓘ 'Almandine-Pyrope Series' Description: Garnet porphyroblasts are common at the locality, forming porphyroblasts up to (and perhaps exceeding) 5 cm. Crude crystals up to about 2-2.5cm could also be found associated with quartz. The garnet is inferred as a almandine-pyrope series based on the geological environment ( upper amphibolite to granulite facies meta-sediments), color ( rose-pink) and specific gravity (~3.9).
