Adamellite granite igneous rock specimens from Shap Fell, Cumbria in the UK exhibiting typical coarse grained texture expected of a slow cooling igneous rock. These samples contain typical granitic minerals such as quartz, feldspars and mica. In this case, the feldspars are potassium and sodium feldspar (orthoclase and plagioclase respectively) in equal proportions. Thus being considered adamellites, named after the type locality of Adamello, Italy. The samples are suitable for children interested in geology and collectors due to the attractive colouration however, they are also excellent for educational use to differentiate between regular granites which are often dominant in one particular felspar only and adamellites. The specimens are available in various sizes and come supplied in a card tray with an information label.
