Chondrodite Cleavage
When it comes to choosing the best pick among gemstones, Chondrodite is known to be a popular choice!Physical properties of Chondrodite include its hardness, gravity, fracture, cleavage, etc. For any gemstone crystal, Chondrodite 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. Chondrodite cleavage is nothing but the plane across which the crystal splits during cutting. Chondrodite cleavage is Poor to good on (001),and specific gravity of Chondrodite is 3.10-3.20.
The physical properties of Chondrodite, 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 Chondrodite is represented by (Mg,Fe) 5(SiO 4) 2(F,OH) 2Ulrich Henn and Claudio C..
