While comparing Cordierite and Bayldonite physical properties, the important data you should know is its chemical composition. Since chemical formula defines the molecular structure of the crystal, most of the physical properties like color, tenacity, solubility are governed by Cordierite and Bayldonite chemical formula.
Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Cordierite and Bayldonite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Cordierite and Bayldonite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Cordierite is 5.50 whereas that of Bayldonite is 5.50.
