- Chemical formula of Jeremejevite- Al 6B 5O 15(F,OH) 3Ulrich Henn and Claudio C.
Chrysoprase and Jeremejevite Specific Gravity
Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Chrysoprase and Jeremejevite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Chrysoprase and Jeremejevite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Chrysoprase is 3.28-3.31 whereas that of Jeremejevite is 3.28-3.31.
