• Chemical formula of Grossular- Ca 3Al 2(SiO 4) 3Arthur Thomas , Gemstones (2009)

Goldstone and Grossular Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Goldstone and Grossular Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Goldstone and Grossular Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Goldstone is 3.55-3.73 whereas that of Grossular is 3.55-3.73.
