Coral and Euclase Optic Character

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

Coral and Euclase Transparency

Similar to their colors, Coral and Euclase 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.
