Fracture is usually described with the terms “fibrous” and “splintery” to denote a fracture that usually leaves elongated and sharp edges. Fracture observed in Tremolite is Conchoidal. Dravite fracture is Uneven, Irregular and Conchoidal.

Tremolite Vs Dravite Luster

A primary knowledge about Tremolite vs Dravite luster is useful in apparent identifications of these gemstones.

Since luster varies between two crystals of even the same gemstone, luster is limited to basic identification criteria. Tremolite exhibits Vitreous and Silky luster. Dravite, on other hand, exhibits Vitreous luster.
