How Does It Compare with the Other Tray Sets?
| Set | Samples | What it covers | Storage |
|---|---|---|---|
| This set (EL-GE-7290) | 30 | Minerals together with igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic rocks | Gratnells tray with lid |
| Basic Rock Set | 12 | Rocks only: oolitic limestone, chalk, marble, gneiss, andesite, basalt, pumice, coal, sandstone, slate, granite, garnet gneiss | Gratnells tray |
| Hydrocarbon Set | 12 | Source, reservoir and cap rocks, oil tar sand with crude oil, and peat to anthracite coal | Gratnells tray with lid |
Choose this set when students need to study minerals and rocks side by side. The Basic Rock Set is a smaller introduction to common rocks, and the Hydrocarbon Set focuses on oil and coal.
What Is the Mineralogy and Petrology Set Used For?
Mineralogy is the study of minerals and petrology the study of rocks, and this set puts both in one tray so students can link a mineral to the rocks it builds. Orthoclase feldspar, rose quartz and the biotite and muscovite micas are the kinds of minerals that make up granite-type rocks and gneiss; calcite is the main mineral of chalk and limestone, and marble forms when limestone is metamorphosed, just as sandstone can become quartzite. The igneous samples run from basalt and bubble basalt — whose holes were left by gas escaping from cooling lava — to pumice, a frothy volcanic glass light enough to float, while slate, garnet mica schist and gneiss with garnet show increasing grades of metamorphism.
The minerals also suit simple identification tests: talc, the softest mineral on the Mohs scale, can be scratched with a fingernail; calcite fizzes in dilute hydrochloric acid; and the micas split into thin sheets. The set fits minerals-and-rocks topics in secondary-school geography and science, college earth science, and first-year geology practicals. Return each sample to its own compartment after use and keep the lid on, so the set stays complete from one class to the next.
What to Specify When Ordering
- Quantity — the minimum order is 10 sets.
- Sample list — ask JLab to confirm the current list with your quotation if your syllabus calls for particular specimens.
- Test equipment — streak plates, hardness pencils or a mineral test kit can be added for identification practicals.
- Other tray sets — the Basic Rock Set or Hydrocarbon Set can go on the same order.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which samples are in the Mineralogy and Petrology set?
Marble, oolitic limestone, slate, garnet mica schist, pumice, talc, Carboniferous limestone, chalk, labradorite feldspar, sandstone, quartzite, gneiss with garnet, biotite mica, muscovite mica, andesite, orthoclase feldspar, coal, unakite, sphalerite, rose quartz, basalt, larvikite, talc schist, fluorite, calcite, bubble basalt, barite, rhyolite, sulphur and gypsum (anhydrite).
How many samples are there, and how are they stored?
There are 30 student samples, supplied in a Gratnells tray with a lid.
Does it contain both minerals and rocks?
Yes. It includes minerals such as fluorite, calcite, barite and sulphur alongside igneous rocks such as basalt and rhyolite, sedimentary rocks such as sandstone and chalk, and metamorphic rocks such as marble and slate.
How is it different from the Basic Rock Set?
The Basic Rock Set has 12 rock samples in a Gratnells tray. This set has 30 samples and adds minerals, so it suits more detailed identification work.
Are a streak plate and hardness tools included?
No, they are not part of this listing. Streak plates, Mohs hardness pencils and a mineral test kit are separate items, linked below.
What is the minimum order and dispatch time?
The minimum order is 10 units, each a complete set. Orders are usually dispatched within 7–10 working days, every set visually inspected first; export transit time depends on the destination.
Who supplies this set?
Jain Laboratory Instruments Pvt Ltd (JLab), Ambala, India supplies it and quotes directly, together with JLab’s rock collections and test equipment.
