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.

Kunzite Vs Diamond Luster

A primary knowledge about Kunzite vs Diamond luster is useful in apparent identifications of these gemstones. Luster is the measure of light that gets reflected when incident on a finished cut gemstone. There are two major types of lusters: Silky and Adamantine. Since luster varies between two crystals of even the same gemstone, luster is limited to basic identification criteria. Kunzite exhibits Vitreous luster. Diamond, on other hand, exhibits Adamantine luster.
