Montebrasite and Sylvite Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Montebrasite and Sylvite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Montebrasite Vs Sylvite during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Montebrasite is whereas that of Sylvite is .
