Specifications

How Does It Compare with the Other Tray Sets?

Choose the Basic Rock Set for a first course on rock types. The Mineralogy and Petrology set adds minerals for more detailed identification, and the Hydrocarbon Set follows oil and coal from source to trap.

What Is the Basic Rock Set Used For?

It gives each group of students one example of the rocks most often met in an introductory rock-cycle lesson. The igneous samples formed from molten rock: granite cooled slowly underground and has large crystals, basalt and andesite cooled quickly at the surface and are fine-grained, and pumice is lava so full of gas that it is frothy and light. The sedimentary samples were built from layers of sediment or the remains of living things — sandstone from sand grains, chalk from tiny marine shells, oolitic limestone from small rounded grains, and coal from buried plant material. The metamorphic samples show what heat and pressure do to existing rocks: limestone becomes marble, mudrock becomes slate, and at higher grades rocks such as granite turn into banded gneiss, with garnet crystals growing in garnet gneiss.

Students can sort the twelve samples into the three groups, then compare pairs such as limestone and marble or granite and gneiss to see how one rock becomes another. The set fits rocks topics in middle and secondary school geography and science and introductory college geology. Return each sample to its place in the tray after the lesson so the set stays complete.

What to Specify When Ordering

• Quantity — the minimum order is 10 sets, for example one per bench group.
• Tray lid — the listing does not state whether a lid is supplied; ask JLab if you need one for storage.
• Larger sets — consider the Mineralogy and Petrology set if your course also covers minerals.
• Identification tools — a mineral test kit or streak plates can be added to the same enquiry.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which rocks are in the Basic Rock Set?
Oolitic limestone, chalk, marble, gneiss, andesite, basalt, pumice, coal, sandstone, slate, granite and garnet gneiss — 12 samples in all.

Does it cover all three rock groups?
Yes. Andesite, basalt, pumice and granite are igneous; oolitic limestone, chalk, coal and sandstone are sedimentary; and marble, gneiss, slate and garnet gneiss are metamorphic.

How is the set packed?
The samples are supplied in a Gratnells tray. The listing does not mention a lid, so ask JLab when you request a quotation if you need one.

How does it differ from the Mineralogy and Petrology set?
This set has 12 rock samples for a first introduction. The Mineralogy and Petrology set has 30 samples, adds minerals such as fluorite and calcite, and comes in a tray with a lid.

Are a hand lens or streak plate included?
No, the listing covers the rock samples and tray. Identification tools such as the mineral test kit are separate items.

What information does an export quotation need?
The number of sets, the destination country and port or city, the delivery terms you want (for example FOB or CIF), any packing or labelling instructions, and a tender reference if applicable.

Who supplies the Basic Rock Set?
