Cryolite and Epidote Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Cryolite and Epidote Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Cryolite Vs Epidote during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Cryolite is whereas that of Epidote is .
