Variscite and Anatase Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Variscite and Anatase Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Variscite Vs Anatase during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Variscite is whereas that of Anatase is .
