Cryolite and Sylvite Specific Gravity

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