"orange de méthyle"

Produces orange pigments. 

Yellow to orange crystal with a glassy luster and smooth, often transparent appearance.

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.

This harmless insect parasitizes the Sarcophaga (flesh fly) pupae. Females usually lay 30–50 eggs in the pupae, which provide food for the Nasonia larvae when they hatch.

Examples of the most basic rocks and rock-forming minerals.

Define and compare ways organisms have been preserved.

Great value for the microscopic study of Pyroxene minerals

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.

A fascinating and colorful classroom study set.

Specimens Illustrate Smooth Mineral Breakage

Clear examples of a key method of identification.

Himalayan mineral great for teaching and display.

Sawn and lacquered slab showing thinly bedded truncated layers in a well-cemented sandstone. Large hand specimen.

Cut and finished samples with fiberoptic samples.

Introduce your students to a broad selection of minerals.
