Chiastolite Cleavage

When it comes to choosing the best pick among gemstones, Chiastolite is known to be a popular choice!Physical properties of Chiastolite include its hardness, gravity, fracture, cleavage, etc. For any gemstone crystal, Chiastolite 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. Chiastolite cleavage is nothing but the plane across which the crystal splits during cutting. and specific gravity of Chiastolite is 3.00-3.15.

The physical properties of Chiastolite, 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. Chemical composition of Chiastolite is represented by Al 2SiO 5Michael O’Donoghue , Gems, Sixth edition (2006).
