As is the Mandarin garnet page does not contain much information different from the Spessartine page. Also m. g. does not have any references other then those in the infobox. I think the speculation should be removed the rest sourced and the entire page merged here.-- Kevmin ( talk) 23:24, 6 June 2009 (UTC) reply
