Plasma and Clinohumite Optic Character

Plasma and Clinohumite optical properties play a significant role while distinguishing these gemstones from each other. These properties are influenced by the Plasma Vs Clinohumite like crystallographic symmetry, pleochroism,etc. in the crystal. Some of the optical properties are refractive index, luster, optic character, pleochroism etc. Prominent among these is Plasma and Clinohumite optic character. You might have noticed your gemologist rotating the gemstone while testing it. Rotating a gemstone along its optic axis helps in determining its optic character.

Plasma and Clinohumite Transparency

Similar to their colors, Plasma and Clinohumite transparency can also be used as criteria for their primary identification. Although transparency cannot be the only criteria for gemstone identification, it can efficiently used in gemstone grading. Talking about their transparency, Plasma is while Plasma is in appearance.
