Quick question for the experts. What exactly is tanga garnet? Is it the same as rhodolite, just from a specific place? I''ve seen several stones that are quite expensive. I''ve been researching the different types of garnet and am pretty confused. Some of them seem so similar and I don''t understand why they have so many different names. I''d like to collect as many species as I can afford. So far I''ve got spessartite, tsavorite, tanga, hessonite, and pyrope. Thanks for any insight.
