Where is garnet geographically found?

Answer 1

"Garnet" is actually the name of a group of silicate minerals, which can be found around the world, as spectacular crystals, gem rough, or massive deposits mined for industrial abrasives. Garnets are found in literally every color, and entire books have been written on them.

The garnet group includes almandine, andradite, calderite, goldmanite, grossular, hibschite, katoite, kimzeyite, knorringite, majorite, morimotoite, pyrope, schorlomite, spessartine, and uvarovite.

Of these, the most common are almandine, andradite, grossular, pyrope, spessartine, and uvarovite. Hundreds of localities are known.

Answer 2

There are some deposits of garnet stones on the east coast -- I believe it is one or both of the Carolinas.

The best garnets - star garnets - are found in India and North Idaho near the town of Emida (about 70 minutes south of Coeur d'Alene, Idaho). You can dig them yourself outside the commercial digging spots, or some of the commercial spots (there are only 2or 3 at the most) will rent you a shovel and sieve for a day for a low fee. The garnets are found in the banks of Emerald Creek, but smaller, sand-size garnets are found in several drainages in that mountainous area.

After the start garnets are polishes, you can clear see a weird structure in them that is in the shape of a six-legged star. Some of them are gorgeous. I have seen some of these garnets that are the size of a small walnut. They sell for quite a bit of money.

Also, these garnets are part of the reason that Idaho is called the Gem State. There are also deposits of high quality opal, and beryl is mined commercially over the mountain ridge south of the garnet location.
