This thesis provides overview of garnet occurance in various localities in the Neogene andesites of West Carpathian (Šiatorská Bukovinka, Breziny, Zvolen – Pomjaslo, Záhradné a Veľký Šariš) , their chemical composition and genesis in volcanic (andesite) rocks. Occurance of almandine garnets is rare worldwide, and very important for determining P-T conditions. This study includes major and trace elements in garnets (almandines) and various mineral inclusions. Many various conditions are importnat to preserve garnets in andesites, such as speed of ascent, P-T conditions and the depth and source of formation. Results are correlated to recent ones and also includes probable model of genesis of garnet in andesites.
