Oligoclase and Lazurite Specific Gravity

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