Fluorapatite and Magnetite Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Fluorapatite and Magnetite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Fluorapatite and Magnetite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Fluorapatite is 5.2 whereas that of Magnetite is 5.2.
