old fashion way but it works.. tap the SC with yr fingernail..if it gives a high pitch "clink" (like clinking of wine glasses) then it's not SC. SC usually gives a lower pitch because it's "thicker" than mineral glassI can resist anything but temptation. - Oscar Wilde

hi everybody, some mineral class very tick you can't judge base on this way. I have one very accurate way to test ( i think), put one drop of water on crystal, the water will abit 'concentrate' like small ball. If mineral crystal, water will 'flat' like 'spoiled egg'...Try it with two different class you will know
