Zektzerite and Linarite Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Zektzerite and Linarite Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Zektzerite and Linarite Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Zektzerite is 5.35 whereas that of Linarite is 5.35.
