It is also a relatively hard mineral, with a hardness of 6.5 to 7.5 on the Mohs scale, making it a durable and long-lasting material for jewelry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn addition to its use as a gemstone, andradite garnet has industrial applications as well. It is used in the manufacture of abrasives, as a filter medium for water purification, and as a radiation shielding material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are several varieties of andradite garnet, including demantoid, melanite, and topazolite. Demantoid is a green variety of andradite garnet that is highly valued as a gemstone due to its intense green color and high dispersion, which gives it a \"fire\" similar to that of a diamond. Melanite is a black variety of andradite garnet that is often used as a decorative stone. Topazolite is a yellow or brown variety of andradite garnet that is also used as a gemstone. (This is the black one).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\" class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eChemical Composition\u003c\/b\u003e: \u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eCa3Fe2(SiO4)3\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eChakra\u003c\/b\u003e: Root\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\" class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSmall\u003cbr\u003eApproximate Size for 1 piece\u003c\/b\u003e: 2.5cm x 2cm x 2cm\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eApproximate Weight for 1 piece\u003c\/b\u003e: 20g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eMedium\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eApproximate Size for 1 piece\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e: 4cm x 3.5cm x 3cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eApproximate Weight for 1 piece\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e: 55g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLarge\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eApproximate Size for 1 piece\u003c\/b\u003e: 5.5cm x 4cm x 3cm\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eApproximate Weight for 1 piece\u003c\/b\u003e: 115g\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\" class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eQuantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1pc\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\" class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWe do our best to buy quality products- although not every rock is the same.
