While comparing Marialite and Hanksite 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 Marialite and Hanksite chemical formula.
Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Marialite and Hanksite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Marialite and Hanksite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Marialite is 2.562 whereas that of Hanksite is 2.562.
