Euclase and Californite Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Euclase and Californite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Euclase and Californite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Euclase is 3.32-3.47 whereas that of Californite is 3.32-3.47.
