A Microsoft Excel spreadsheet has been programmed that allows users to calculate with ease the molar proportions of garnet end-members from chemical analyses. Recent advances in the understanding of the crystal chemistry of natural garnets, especially of the Ti-bearing garnets, are used to evaluate 29 end-members (15 species and 14 hypothetical end-members) for each analysis. The amounts of Fe2+ and Fe3+ (and Mn3+, if necessary) are Calculated by stoichiometric constraints if these quantities have not been measured. The input data can include: SiO2, TiO2, ZrO2, SnO2, Y2O3, Al2O3, SC2O3, Cr-23, V2O3, FeO, Fe2O3, MnO, MgO, CaO, Na2O, H2O+ and F. The spreadsheet can be used with large data sets (Lip to 100 analyses at a time), and is accompanied by results calculated for 470 garnet analyses taken from the literature. The spreadsheet employs a simple scoring algorithm to measure the quality of a garnet analysis. The propagation of error from the input chemical data to the Calculation of end-member proportions is also discussed briefly. (c) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
