Carletonite and Rosinca optical properties play a significant role while distinguishing these gemstones from each other. These properties are influenced by the Carletonite and Rosinca Physical Properties 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 Carletonite and Rosinca 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.
Similar to their colors, Carletonite and Rosinca transparency can also be used as criteria for their primary identification.
