Triplite and Magnetite Chemical Formula

While comparing Triplite 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 Triplite and Magnetite chemical formula.

  • Chemical formula of Triplite- (Mn2+ ,Fe2+ ,Mg,Ca) 2(PO 4)(F,OH)Michael O’Donoghue , Gems, Sixth Edition (2006)

Triplite and Magnetite Specific Gravity

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