Andesine and Copper Optic Character

Andesine and Copper optical properties play a significant role while distinguishing these gemstones from each other. These properties are influenced by the Andesine Vs Copper like crystallographic symmetry, pleochroism,etc. in the crystal. Some of the optical properties are refractive index, luster, optic character, pleochroism etc. Prominent among these is Andesine and Copper optic character. You might have noticed your gemologist rotating the gemstone while testing it. Rotating a gemstone along its optic axis helps in determining its optic character.

Andesine and Copper Transparency

Similar to their colors, Andesine and Copper transparency can also be used as criteria for their primary identification. Although transparency cannot be the only criteria for gemstone identification, it can efficiently used in gemstone grading. Talking about their transparency, Andesine is while Andesine is in appearance.
