Clinozoisite and Pleonast Specific Gravity
Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Clinozoisite and Pleonast Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Clinozoisite and Pleonast Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Clinozoisite is Not Available whereas that of Pleonast is Not Available.
