Description
The Quartzite Rock Pack of 10 is an excellent resource for geology classrooms, labs, and collectors. Quartzite is a durable metamorphic rock formed when sandstone is subjected to intense heat and pressure. This results in a dense, interlocking crystalline structure. Typically white to light gray, it may also contain subtle shades of pink, yellow, or red depending on mineral impurities.
Each specimen in this pack is ideal for hands-on study and demonstration. With its glassy luster and coarse texture, quartzite is commonly used to teach about the metamorphic transformation of sedimentary rocks and the rock cycle.
Perfect for educational settings, this set allows students to closely examine the physical properties of quartzite. This includes its hardness, crystalline structure, and resistance to weathering. The specimens come neatly packed for convenient storage and repeated classroom use.
Whether used for lessons, demonstrations, or personal study, this pack provides a reliable way to explore one of Earth’s most durable and widely distributed metamorphic rocks.
