Bluish stones are most valuable. Prices for chrysoberyls grow rapidly with weight, and clean stones bigger than 15 cts are rare and therefore an excellent investment.

Chrysoberyl Vs Diopside Fracture
Fracture is an important parameter when you compare Chrysoberyl and Diopside Physical Properties. It is necessary to understand the significance of these properties, before you compare Chrysoberyl Vs Diopside fracture. Whenever a gemstone chip breaks, it leaves a characteristic line along its breakage. Such lines are known as fracture and are used to identify the gemstones in their initial stages of production when they are in the form of rough minerals. Fracture is usually described with the terms “fibrous” and “splintery” to denote a fracture that usually leaves elongated and sharp edges. Fracture observed in Chrysoberyl is Brittle, Brittle, Conchoidal to uneven, ConchoidalWalter Schumann, Metallic, Metallic, Uneven and Uneven. Diopside fracture is Brittle, Conchoidal, Conchoidal, Gemstones of the world (2001) More from other references and UnevenWalter Schumann.
