Sellaite and Leucite Specific Gravity

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