Such lines are known as fracture and are used to identify the gemstones in their initial stages of production when they are in the form of rough minerals.

Glass Vs Rhodolite Luster

A primary knowledge about Glass vs Rhodolite luster is useful in apparent identifications of these gemstones.

Since luster varies between two crystals of even the same gemstone, luster is limited to basic identification criteria. Rhodolite, on other hand, exhibits Greasy and Vitreous luster.
