Lepidolite and Hydrogrossular Chemical Formula
While comparing Lepidolite and Hydrogrossular 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 Lepidolite and Hydrogrossular chemical formula.

Lepidolite and Hydrogrossular Specific Gravity
Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Lepidolite and Hydrogrossular Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Lepidolite and Hydrogrossular Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Lepidolite is 3.25-3.40 whereas that of Hydrogrossular is 3.25-3.40.
