  • Chemical formula of Magnetite- Fe 3O 4Ulrich Henn and Claudio C.

Aegirine and Magnetite Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Aegirine and Magnetite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Aegirine and Magnetite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Aegirine is 5.2 whereas that of Magnetite is 5.2.
