Pectolite Cleavage

When it comes to choosing the best pick among Colorless Gems gemstones, Pectolite is known to be a popular choice!Physical properties of Pectolite include its hardness, gravity, fracture, cleavage, etc. For any gemstone crystal, Pectolite 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. Pectolite cleavage is nothing but the plane across which the crystal splits during cutting. Pectolite cleavage is Perfect on and ,and specific gravity of Pectolite is 2.74-2.90.

The physical properties of Pectolite, 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 Pectolite is represented by Ca 2NaHSi 3O 9Ulrich Henn and Claudio C..
