Parisite and Kainite Specific Gravity
Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Parisite and Kainite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Parisite and Kainite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Parisite is 2.15 whereas that of Kainite is 2.15.
