Description

Enhance your classroom, lab, or collection with this Pack of 10 Anthracite Coal Specimens, a premium form of metamorphic rock. Each sample, averaging 4 cm, is black, shiny, and hard, illustrating the transformation of plant material into coal under intense pressure and temperature over millions of years.

Anthracite coal is the highest grade of coal, with a high carbon content and distinct luster, making it an excellent teaching specimen for lessons on metamorphic processes, fossil fuels, and Earth’s geological history. Its durability also allows for hands-on exploration, making it ideal for scratch and streak testing or for demonstrating coal’s role in energy production.

Perfect for geology classrooms, laboratory exercises, or educational collections, this set provides consistent, high-quality specimens that highlight the unique characteristics of anthracite. Whether used for demonstration, study, or display, these samples offer a tangible connection to Earth’s natural processes.
