Gedrite and Bort Physical Properties

Gedrite and Bort Chemical Formula

While comparing Gedrite and Bort 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 Gedrite and Bort chemical formula.
