  • Chemical formula of Magnetite- Fe 3O 4Ulrich Henn and Claudio C.

Vanadinite and Magnetite Specific Gravity

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