Charoite and Bronzite Specific Gravity
Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Charoite and Bronzite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Charoite and Bronzite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Charoite is 3.35 whereas that of Bronzite is 3.35.
