Esperite and Musgravite Chemical Formula

While comparing Esperite and Musgravite 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 Esperite and Musgravite chemical formula.

  • Chemical formula of Esperite- PbCa 3Zn 4(SiO 4) 4Anthony et al , Handbook of mineralogy (2001)
  • Chemical formula of Musgravite- (Mg,Fe,Zn)Al 6BeO 12Ulrich Henn and Claudio C.

Esperite and Musgravite Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Esperite and Musgravite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Esperite and Musgravite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Esperite is 3.62-3.68 whereas that of Musgravite is 3.62-3.68.
