  • Chemical formula of Magnetite- Fe 3O 4Ulrich Henn and Claudio C.

Mellite and Magnetite Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Mellite and Magnetite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Mellite and Magnetite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Mellite is 5.2 whereas that of Magnetite is 5.2.
