Garnets include an extensive group of nesosilicates which share a chemical formula. Miscibilities can be detected between the different species. This mineral is part of the cubic system and has a hardness of 7-7.5 on the Mohs scale

The Spessartite, whose name derives from Spessart (a relief in central Germany), has a color that varies from yellowish orange, commercially called "tangerine", to bright red-brown. Spessartite is a gem that symbolizes joy, the desire to live generously.
