Hydrogrossular Garnet (Transvaal "Jade") Slabs
...MORE COMING SOON
Although this is commonly called Transvaal Jade, it is actually the hydrogrossular form of garnet. It cuts jadelike stones, with thin pieces showing translucence. It polishes well with aluminum oxide and diamond.
Please NOTE that these particular slabs are unfortunately quite fractured.
