Lepidocrocite and Anyolite Physical Properties

Lepidocrocite and Anyolite Chemical Formula

While comparing Lepidocrocite and Anyolite 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 Lepidocrocite and Anyolite chemical formula.

• Chemical formula of Lepidocrocite- FeO(OH)
• Chemical formula of Anyolite- Ruby Zoisite: (Ca,Na)(Al,Mg,Fe)3Al6(BO3)3Si6O18(OH)4

Lepidocrocite and Anyolite Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Lepidocrocite and Anyolite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Lepidocrocite and Anyolite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Lepidocrocite is 3.20-3.50 whereas that of Anyolite is 3.20-3.50.
