It is necessary to understand the significance of these properties, before you compare Tsavorite Vs Pyrite fracture. Whenever a gemstone chip breaks, it leaves a characteristic line along its breakage. Such lines are known as fracture and are used to identify the gemstones in their initial stages of production when they are in the form of rough minerals. Fracture is usually described with the terms “fibrous” and “splintery” to denote a fracture that usually leaves elongated and sharp edges. Pyrite fracture is Uneven, Conchoidal and ConchoidalWalter Schumann.
