Copper and Gypsum Optic Character

Copper and Gypsum optical properties play a significant role while distinguishing these gemstones from each other. These properties are influenced by the Copper and Gypsum 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 Copper and Gypsum 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.

Copper and Gypsum Transparency

Similar to their colors, Copper and Gypsum transparency can also be used as criteria for their primary identification. Although transparency cannot be the only criteria for gemstone identification, it can efficiently used in gemstone grading. Talking about their transparency, Copper is Not Available while Copper is Not Available in appearance.
