Eosphorite and Tremolite Specific Gravity
Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Eosphorite and Tremolite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Eosphorite and Tremolite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Eosphorite is 2.95-3.07 whereas that of Tremolite is 2.95-3.07.
