Bulk density is a measure of mass per unit volume of rock and may be expressed, for example, as metric tonnes per cubic meter (t/m3) or pounds per cubic foot (lbs/cu ft). Density is determined by measuring the mass of a sample and dividing this by its volume. As a general rule, the dry mass is obtained by drying the sample and then weighing it ...

Specific Gravity and Bulk Density | SGS Canada
"Specific gravity" is the density of a material relative to water. Since rocks are comprised of several distinct mineral phases, they do not have a fixed specific gravity. Instead, a rock's "bulk density" arises as a result of the percentage of all minerals in a sample multiplied by the specific gravity of each.

Bulk Density vs. Dry Density
The main difference lies in the consideration of voids or air spaces. Bulk density takes into account the total volume of the material, including both solid particles and voids, while dry density only considers the mass of solid particles per unit volume, excluding the voids. Another difference is in their applications.
