Eosphorite and Sonolite Optic Character

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

Eosphorite and Sonolite Transparency

Similar to their colors, Eosphorite and Sonolite 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, Eosphorite is Transparent while Eosphorite is Transparent in appearance.
