  • Chemical formula of Morion- SiO 2Ulrich Henn and Claudio C.

Sylvite and Morion Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Sylvite and Morion Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Sylvite and Morion Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Sylvite is 2.65 whereas that of Morion is 2.65.
