Villiaumite and Uvite Physical Properties

Villiaumite and Uvite Chemical Formula

While comparing Villiaumite and Uvite physical properties, the important data you should know is its chemical composition. Since chemical formula defines the molecular structure of the crystal, most of the physical properties like color, tenacity, solubility are governed by Villiaumite and Uvite chemical formula.

• Chemical formula of Villiaumite- NaFUlrich Henn and Claudio C.
• Chemical formula of Uvite- Ca(Mg 3)MgAl 5(Si 6O 18)(BO 3) 3(OH) 3(OH)Gemdat.org , Management Team (2012)

Villiaumite and Uvite Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Villiaumite and Uvite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Villiaumite and Uvite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Villiaumite is 2.97-3.14 whereas that of Uvite is 2.97-3.14.
