Use these thin-section slides with a polarizing microscope to view rock specimens in detail. Includes: biotite granite, olivine basalt, red sandstone, encrinal limestone, mica schist, augen gneiss, storage box and identification guide.

Note: collections are subject to change depending upon availability of individual items. Set of six.

Specially selected thin sections of important rock forming minerals. Set may contain more than one example of the same mineral to depict variations in occurrence and distinct mineral associations.

Slides (12): actinolite, anthophyllite, cummingtonite, ferrohornblende, fluoredenite, glaucophane, grunerite, hexagonite, kaersutite, magnesiohornblende, riebeckite, tremolite.

When minerals, rocks, and fossils cannot be accurately identified by macroscopic observation and testing, thin section slides can reveal the composition and structure of the specimens on a microscopic level.
