More Details· Specific Gravity (Density) Density = Mass/Volume, and is measured in units of mass per distance3. The measurement of mass is fairly simple, but the measurement of volume is not. The simplest methodology utilises Archimedes'' principle and makes use of hydrometers, Jolly, beam or Berman balances, or the pycnometer.
More DetailsCorundum in its pure state is colourless, but the presence of small amounts of impurities can impart a broad range of hues to the mineral. Ruby owes its red colour to chromium, sapphire its blue shades to the presence of iron and titanium; most corundum contains nearly 1 percent iron oxide. The mineral readily weathers to other aluminous minerals—e.g., margarite, zoisite, sillimanite, and ...
More DetailsCorundum is very compact, dense, and lacks gemstone cleavage. It''s also the second hardest natural mineral after diamond. Gem-quality corundum is also quite rare. These factors make both varieties of corundum some of the most highly desired jewelry stones. Ruby is the red variety of corundum. All other colors of corundum, including colorless ...

More DetailsCorundum is best known for its gem varieties, Ruby and Sapphire. Ruby and Sapphire are scientifically the same mineral, but just differ in color. Ruby is the red variety, and Sapphire is the variety that encompasses all other colors, although the most popular and valued color of Sapphire is blue.
More Details· Since specific gravity is relative to the weight of an object in air and its weight in water, it is a ratio and isn''t expressed in units (such as kg/m³). For instance, the SG of Diamond = 3.52 (whereas the density of Diamond = 3.52 g/cm³). In gemology, specific gravity is, usually, determined through an apparatus based on Archimedes'' Principle.
More DetailsHence, concentration of chromite is often required. It is usually performed by gravity methods based on differences between the densities of chromite and gangue minerals, especially serpentine and olivine. The fine fraction below 100 µm is usually discarded as gangue due to …
More DetailsChromium enters into the structure of the corundum (diffuses into the corundum). This is a slow process, so chromium enrichment only occurs in the surface layer. This is sufficient to produce a strong color enhancement that is difficult to detect by eye. Diffusion treatment for sapphires is similar to that for any corundum variety.

More DetailsCorundum crystals are generally hexagonal, either tabular, tapering barrel-shaped, or dipyramidal. Corundum can also be massive or granular. It forms in syenites certain pegmatites and in high-grade metamorphic rocks. It is concentrated in placer deposits. Name: Probably from the Sanskrit kurivinda, for ruby, through the Tamil kurundam.
More DetailsCorundum comes in all colours of the rainbow but is most commonly found as opaque crystals with dull colours.Red corundum is called ruby, blue corundum is called sapphire, and all other colours are called fancy sapphires. Some varieties of corundum will fluoresce under short wave and long wave UV light if there is enough chromium in the crystal structure but little iron, which tends to quench ...
