Specimens of Banded Tuff, collected from Cumbria in the UK. Tuff is an igenous rock, formed when volcanic ash that is ejected from a vent during an eruption, is deposited and lithified into a solid rock. Tuff is often banded, as larger particles of fall first, with finer particles deposited on top as they fall later. These pieces are in limited stock and pink-brown in colour. Varying levels of banding shown in each piece. Available in three different sizes and come in a white card tray with an information label.

Essexite igneous rock specimens from Lanarkshire, Scotland, UK, also known as olivine or nepheline monzogabbro is an intrusive rock with mafic chemistry, composed of nepheline and plagioclase feldspar along with olivine, magnetite minerals as well as augite phenocrysts which exhibit euhedral crystal forms. The rock has a dense weight and overall dark colouration but attractive appearance. It is locally known as Crawfordjohns and was highly sought after as a high quality material to produce curling stones. These samples are excellent for young and older collectors as well as higher educational use, the pieces are available in three sizes and come supplied in a card tray with an information label.

Larvikite is an igneous plutonic rock and variant of monzonite from Larvik, Norway, due to its chemistry, it is composed mainly of orthoclase, albite and anorthite along with plagioclase which gives the rock a blue to silver shimmering effect. The igneous pluton formed during the Permian period, 292 – 298 million years ago during the the Variscan orogeny. A beautiful rock to observe due to its coarse crystalline texture and schiller effect, the samples are ideal for general interest, collectors and educational use with specimens being available in three sizes and come supplied in a card tray with an information label.
We also supply Syenite thin sections for microscope study which are available to buy HERE.
