12PK Fine White Marble Specimens, 1" - Geologist Selected Samples - Eisco Labs

• FINE WHITE MARBLE | Formed from limestone, this high pressure, low heat alteration leads to a large crystalline rock. Heavily mined for architecture, marble is also used for buildings and furniture
• GREAT FOR GEOLOGY CLASSROOMS | While denser than limestone, marble is still effervesce in acid, making this metamorphic rock useful in identification activities. This set of twelve samples is excellent for group study and examination
• GEOLOGIST SELECTED | Each specimen is selected and hand processed by an actual geologist, ensuring each sample exhibits defining features
• LOCALLY PROCESSED | Our rock and mineral samples are sourced from a variety of locations around the world and are processed in Victor, NY
• INDIVIDUALLY PACKAGED & LABELED | Each specimen sample is packaged in a transparent bag, and is labeled & barcoded for easy identification

Raw Fine White Marble Specimen
Set of 12 Samples, 1"

Formed from limestone, this high pressure, low heat alteration leads to a large crystalline rock. Heavily mined for architecture, marble is also used for buildings and furniture. While denser than limestone, marble is still effervesce in acid, making this metamorphic rock useful in identification activities.
While each specimen will vary slightly in shape, size and color, it will measure approximately 1" in length. Each is individually packaged, labeled & barcoded for easy identification and storage.
