Lazulite and Bloodstone Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Lazulite and Bloodstone Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Lazulite and Bloodstone Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Lazulite is 2.63-2.65 whereas that of Bloodstone is 2.63-2.65.
