Tanzanite and Magnetite Chemical Formula

While comparing Tanzanite and Magnetite 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 Tanzanite and Magnetite chemical formula.

  • Chemical formula of Tanzanite- Ca2Al3(SiO4)3(OH)
  • Chemical formula of Magnetite- Fe 3O 4Ulrich Henn and Claudio C.

Tanzanite and Magnetite Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Tanzanite and Magnetite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Tanzanite and Magnetite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Tanzanite is 5.2 whereas that of Magnetite is 5.2.
