Abstract
Eleven garnet compositions on the pyrope-grossular join were synthesized from glass starting materials by a combination of hydrothermal synthesis and recycling of most of the products at approx 40 kbar, 1400 degrees C, in graphite capsules. Syntheses of homogeneouscrystals were also successful within the compositional range Gr (sub 50) -Gr (sub 80) , which represented a conspicuous gap in earlier studies on synthetic garnets.
