Fluorite and Goldstone Chemical Formula

While comparing Fluorite and Goldstone 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 Fluorite and Goldstone chemical formula.

  • Chemical formula of Fluorite- CaF2
  • Chemical formula of Goldstone- Au

Fluorite and Goldstone Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Fluorite and Goldstone Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Fluorite and Goldstone Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Fluorite is 2.50-2.80 whereas that of Goldstone is 2.50-2.80.
