Whenever a gemstone chip breaks, it leaves a characteristic line along its breakage. Such lines are known as fracture and are used to identify the gemstones in their initial stages of production when they are in the form of rough minerals. Fracture is usually described with the terms “fibrous” and “splintery” to denote a fracture that usually leaves elongated and sharp edges. Scorodite fracture is Sub-Conchoidal and Splintery.

A primary knowledge about Iolite vs Scorodite luster is useful in apparent identifications of these gemstones.

Since luster varies between two crystals of even the same gemstone, luster is limited to basic identification criteria. Iolite exhibits Vitreous luster. Scorodite, on other hand, exhibits Sub-Adamantine, Vitreous and Resinous luster.
