Zoned, birefringent garnets from Thera Island, Santorini Group (Aegean Sea)

A garnetite that occurs locally in phyllitic schists exposed by the Santorini caldera consists mainly of euhedral garnet crystals showing alternating isotropic and birefringent lamellae. X-ray diffraction revealed two garnets with unit cell dimensions a of I2.o52:ko-oo2 and I~'984-ko-oo5 A, corresponding respectively to almost pure andradite and a granditic phase. Mean compositions determined b...
