Baryte Cleavage

When it comes to choosing the best pick among Blue Gemstones gemstones, Baryte is known to be a popular choice!Physical properties of Baryte include its hardness, gravity, fracture, cleavage, etc. For any gemstone crystal, Baryte Optical Properties are responsible for imparting various physical properties to its structure. Knowledge of these properties is equally important to gem-cutters as well as to consumers. Baryte cleavage is nothing but the plane across which the crystal splits during cutting. Baryte cleavage is Perfect cleavage parallel to base and prism faces: Perfect, Perfect, Imperfect,and specific gravity of Baryte is 4.3-5.

The physical properties of Baryte, in fact, are imparted by the chemical composition of its individual molecule. The reactivity or inertness of the crystal is solely governed by its chemical structure.
