Schorl and Kyanite Cyprine Specific Gravity
Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Schorl and Kyanite Cyprine Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Schorl and Kyanite Cyprine Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Schorl is 3.55-3.70 whereas that of Kyanite Cyprine is 3.55-3.70.
