Bort and Citrine Specific Gravity
Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Bort and Citrine Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Bort and Citrine Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Bort is 2.65 whereas that of Citrine is 2.65.
