Moonstone and Magnetite Specific Gravity

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