Fracture is usually described with the terms “fibrous” and “splintery” to denote a fracture that usually leaves elongated and sharp edges. Fracture observed in Linarite is Conchoidal. Scorodite fracture is Sub-Conchoidal and Splintery.

Linarite Vs Scorodite Luster

Since luster varies between two crystals of even the same gemstone, luster is limited to basic identification criteria. Linarite exhibits Sub-Adamantine and Vitreous luster. Scorodite, on other hand, exhibits Sub-Adamantine, Vitreous and Resinous luster.
