New and original discovered in Mali for these Garnet for the least surprising. These are two varieties of Garnet, the heart rather golden color is of the Grandite (= Grossular and Andradite), and the turn black color is a Melanite, titaniferous variety of Andradite. Several hypotheses have been...

New discovery in April 2023 in Morocco. We put a question mark on Endlichite because the first analyses on these specimens reveal the absence of Arsenic. As a reminder, Endlichite is the high Arsenic variety of Vanadinite. We have the analyses on the specimens studied, we provide them of course...
