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