Sellaite and Copper Chemical Formula

While comparing Sellaite and Copper physical properties, the important data you should know is its chemical composition. Since chemical formula defines the molecular structure of the crystal, most of the physical properties like color, tenacity, solubility are governed by Sellaite and Copper chemical formula.

Sellaite and Copper Specific Gravity

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