Scapolite and Geodes Specific Gravity

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