Sanidine and Plasma Specific Gravity
Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Sanidine and Plasma Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Sanidine and Plasma Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Sanidine is Not Available whereas that of Plasma is Not Available.
