No, Merelani Mint garnet is not the same as Tsavorite. Both are green grossular garnets but the mint garnet does not have enough color saturation to be considered a tsavorite. They occur in the same geological environment but the Mint garnet is not imparted with enough chromium or vanadium to give it the saturation necessary to call it tsavorite. This is like green beryl vs emerald or the difference between pink sapphire and ruby.

Why does any drink feel ice cold after eating a mint?

"According to a group of scientists in San Francisco, the reason is that the same nerve fibres that signal hot and cold are also sensitive to menthol, an ingredient in mints. Normally when the temperature changes it causes pores on the surface of the nerve cell to open and close, changing the electrical activity of the cell, which the brain interprets as a change in temperature. But menthol can also affect the function of the pores in the same way and triggers the nerve cell into thinking that the temperature is lower than it is." -TheNakedScientists.com


How much is a real double sided quarter with 1985 on one side and 1995 on the other worth?

Why and how do you know it's real? 1. The mint uses dies that are keyed so that two fronts or backs can't be put into a press at the same time 2. What are the chances that a coin would leave the mint in 1985, find its way back 10 years later, and get struck with a new date on one side only? 3. Each year's dies are destroyed at the end of the run, so a 2-date combination can't be made by a rogue employee. Bottom line - you have a privately-manufactured magician's coin worth nothing to a coin collector.
