Calcite and Morion Specific Gravity

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