Hibonite and Plasma Specific Gravity
Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Hibonite and Plasma Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Hibonite and Plasma Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Hibonite is Not Available whereas that of Plasma is Not Available.
