Uvite and Violane Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Uvite and Violane Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Uvite and Violane Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Uvite is 3.22-3.40 whereas that of Violane is 3.22-3.40.
