Description
Discover the essential features of one of Earth’s most abundant minerals with this pack of 10 Plagioclase Feldspar specimens. Represented here by Labradorite, an intermediate to calcic member of the plagioclase series, these samples showcase the mineral’s defining traits, making them a valuable addition to any geology collection.
Each specimen highlights plagioclase’s typical colours—ranging from gray and gray-white to brown, greenish, or pale tones—along with its characteristic white streak. Common twinning patterns such as Albite and Pericline are often observed, providing excellent teaching points for mineral identification. With a specific gravity between 2.68 and 2.72, these specimens are ideal for studying mineral density and classification.
Perfectly sized for handling, this 10-piece set is suitable for classrooms, laboratories, and personal collections. They can be used for teaching mineral properties, exploring crystallography, or expanding a collection. Plagioclase Feldspar specimens offer both scientific accuracy and hands-on learning value.
An indispensable mineral for students, educators, and collectors, Plagioclase Feldspar is a cornerstone of geological study.
