Sulfur and Gyrolite Specific Gravity
Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Sulfur and Gyrolite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Sulfur and Gyrolite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Sulfur is 2.48 whereas that of Gyrolite is 2.48.
