Goldstone and Hauyne Chemical Formula
While comparing Goldstone and Hauyne 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 Goldstone and Hauyne chemical formula.
- Chemical formula of Goldstone- Au
- Chemical formula of Hauyne- (Na,Ca)4-8Al6Si6(O,S)24(SO4,Cl)1-2
Goldstone and Hauyne Specific Gravity
Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Goldstone and Hauyne Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Goldstone and Hauyne Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Goldstone is 2.4-2.5 whereas that of Hauyne is 2.4-2.5.
