Goldstone and Zircon Chemical Formula

While comparing Goldstone and Zircon 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 Zircon chemical formula.

  • Chemical formula of Goldstone- Au
  • Chemical formula of Zircon- ZrSiO4

Goldstone and Zircon Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Goldstone and Zircon Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Goldstone and Zircon Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Goldstone is 3.93-4.73 whereas that of Zircon is 3.93-4.73.
