Uvarovite and Kunzite Specific Gravity
Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Uvarovite and Kunzite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Uvarovite and Kunzite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Uvarovite is 3.15-3.21 whereas that of Kunzite is 3.15-3.21.
