Omphacite and Fuchsite Specific Gravity

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