Specific gravity is a comparison of the density of one material to the density of water (at 4 degrees C). When a mineral has a specific gravity (SG) of 7.0 it means that the mineral is 7.0 times as heavy as the same volume of water.

The moon's gravity is 1/6 the force of Earth's gravity, so you would weight 1/6 as much on the moon than on the Earth. For example, if you were 120 kg on Earth, you would be 20 kg on the Moon. (120 / 6 = 20)
