Description

Introduce students and collectors to the striking patterns of Gneiss, a metamorphic rock formed under intense heat and pressure. Recognized by its distinctive banded texture, gneiss displays alternating light and dark mineral layers, often composed of feldspar, quartz, and mica. This rock provides a clear example of foliation, making it an excellent teaching aid for geology classrooms.

Each pack contains 10 specimens, ideal for hands-on learning and examination. The unique banding makes gneiss both visually appealing and scientifically valuable, helping learners understand the processes of metamorphism and mineral alignment.

Perfect for educational settings, laboratories, or personal collections, this set offers durable and well-sized samples for repeated classroom use. With its clear structure and mineral composition, gneiss serves as a reliable reference for studying metamorphic rocks and earth’s geological history.
