To determine the equation of state for olivine is of great interest to study the physical state and the chemical composition of region of the earth’s interior. Olivine is magnesium iron silicate and it is found in earths subsurface. The composition of molecule Mg2SiO4 is 90% and molecule Fe2SiO4 is 10%.It is found in green color. Olivine has high crystallization temperature as compared to other minerals found in earth surface. It is first mineral to be altered by weathering. Its hardness is between 6.5 and 7.0, as compare to surrounding rocks, olivine is usually harder. Here the occurrence of olivine, its properties, its experimental as well as some theoretical status, about its application and also about its equation of state is discussed. Here elasticity of olivine and thermal expansion of the minerals is also discussed. Many scientifically research has been done, so here we talk about that research.
