Langbeinite and Leucite Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Langbeinite and Leucite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Langbeinite Vs Leucite during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Langbeinite is whereas that of Leucite is .
