Raw Dolostone, Sedimentary Rock - Approx. 1"

• DOLOSTONE | Composed primarily of carbonate material, dolostone is a more stalwart rock than its chemical cousin, limestone. It is often mined for construction and infrastructure purposes, being used heavily in industry as concrete or in the home as countertops
• GREAT FOR GEOLOGY CLASSROOMS | Ideal for identification & classification exercises. Can be used to teach students about sedimentary petrology, chemical sedimentary rocks, and industrial geology
• 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
