Vesuvianite Cleavage

When it comes to choosing the best pick among Brown Gemstones gemstones, Vesuvianite is known to be a popular choice!Physical properties of Vesuvianite include its hardness, gravity, fracture, cleavage, etc. For any gemstone crystal, Vesuvianite 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. Vesuvianite cleavage is nothing but the plane across which the crystal splits during cutting. Vesuvianite cleavage is Poor on and very poor on ,and specific gravity of Vesuvianite is 3.32-3.43.

The physical properties of Vesuvianite, 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.
