Our pomegranate tree is having a generous year, and I am enjoying the practice of popping the seeds out of the fruit.
Do you know the trick of running a knife around the shoulders and taking off the end(s) before breaking it into sections?

Interesting! Looking into these garnets, I would classify them as Too Specific. To be the most interesting laser materials they'd ideally have some rare earth elements mixed in there, such as erbium or neodymium and especially yttrium. OG (Original Garnet) leaves this possibility open!

Combined, the laser power duo Ruby and Sapphire turn into another god-tier laser gem, Garnet.
In fact, garnets in various forms can make intense pulsed lasers of all colors. They're used in dentistry, hair removal, research, and more. Garnet's even wearing laser goggles!

Same. I’ve been looking into orange garnets, myself. More likely moissanite with my budget.

This one sold and ships out today — eastern red cedar, with garnets and amethyst set under the handle. The grain on this one was insane. Super one of a kind. #woodworking #easternredcedar #ritualtools #WitchSky

I know of a cove in Fife for tiny garnets, but aside from that, I'd have to do some serious research, and I dont think we have anything commercial. Id need to check mineral rights, too. I know gold panning is regulated in some locations so crystal and minerals might be too.

Subducted chert with perfect little #garnets scattered in a sea of #quartz, as seen under cross polarized and plane polarized light; FOV ~ 1.5 mm. Laytonville, California US. Garnet has previously won #MineralCup and maybe 2026 is finally the year for #quartz! #MinCup26

Love garnets. Surprising how often you can find them in granite countertops.

Rubies are harder than garnets. But honestly, a scratch test is going to mar something (both garnet and ruby can scratch glass, so that's not the best test).
A UV lamp is probably the easiest.

Garnet vs Ruby: How to Tell Them Apart | Any Rock Identifier
Garnet vs ruby: ruby is harder, pricier, and often shows color zoning. Garnet is darker and singly refractive. Here are the quick tests that settle it.

I dunno, you might try a scratch test to see if those are rubies. The color (at least on my screen) leans very cool red, and garnets are usually warmer.

jace being able to tuck your garnets back into your deck is awesome, i just need to adjust the deck to have less garnets because i drew like five of em and needed to send them to the cuck zone (bottom of deck)

(I'd guess it's bohemian garnets from around Prague - I have some earrings that look similar, and this style seems adjacent to a lot of garnet shapes coming out of there.)
