Moldavite and Bloodstone Specific Gravity
Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Moldavite and Bloodstone Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Moldavite and Bloodstone Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Moldavite is 2.63-2.65 whereas that of Bloodstone is 2.63-2.65.
