Violane and Gibbsite Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Violane and Gibbsite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Violane and Gibbsite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Violane is 2.35 whereas that of Gibbsite is 2.35.
