Oligoclase and Tektite Optic Character

Oligoclase and Tektite optical properties play a significant role while distinguishing these gemstones from each other. These properties are influenced by the Oligoclase and Tektite Physical Properties like crystallographic symmetry, pleochroism,etc. in the crystal. Some of the optical properties are refractive index, luster, optic character, pleochroism etc. Prominent among these is Oligoclase and Tektite optic character. You might have noticed your gemologist rotating the gemstone while testing it. Rotating a gemstone along its optic axis helps in determining its optic character.

Oligoclase and Tektite Transparency

Similar to their colors, Oligoclase and Tektite transparency can also be used as criteria for their primary identification. Although transparency cannot be the only criteria for gemstone identification, it can efficiently used in gemstone grading. Talking about their transparency, Oligoclase is Gemmological Tables (2004) while Oligoclase is Gemmological Tables (2004) in appearance.
