Morion and Thomsonite Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Morion and Thomsonite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Morion and Thomsonite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Morion is 2.25-2.40 whereas that of Thomsonite is 2.25-2.40.
