Franklinite and Hydrogrossular Specific Gravity
Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Franklinite and Hydrogrossular Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Franklinite and Hydrogrossular Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Franklinite is 3.25-3.40 whereas that of Hydrogrossular is 3.25-3.40.
