Omphacite and Sphene Specific Gravity

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