Pyromorphite and Leucite Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Pyromorphite and Leucite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Pyromorphite Vs Leucite during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Pyromorphite is whereas that of Leucite is .
