Zoisite Cleavage

When it comes to choosing the best pick among Brown Gemstones gemstones, Zoisite is known to be a popular choice!Physical properties of Zoisite include its hardness, gravity, fracture, cleavage, etc. For any gemstone crystal, Zoisite 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. Zoisite cleavage is nothing but the plane across which the crystal splits during cutting. Zoisite cleavage is Perfect imperfect ,and specific gravity of Zoisite is 3.20-3.50.

The physical properties of Zoisite, 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 Zoisite is represented by Ca2Al3(SiO4)3(OH).
