Leucite and Ivory Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Leucite and Ivory Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Leucite and Ivory Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Leucite is 1.70-2.00 whereas that of Ivory is 1.70-2.00.
