Humite and Bronzite Chemical Formula

While comparing Humite and Bronzite 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 Humite and Bronzite chemical formula.

  • Chemical formula of Humite- (Mg,Fe2+ ) 7(SiO 4) 3(F,OH) 2Anthony et al , Handbook of mineralogy (2001)
  • Chemical formula of Bronzite- (Mg,Fe) 2Si 2O 6Ulrich Henn and Claudio C.

Humite and Bronzite Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Humite and Bronzite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Humite and Bronzite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Humite is 3.35 whereas that of Bronzite is 3.35.
