Massive Biotite Mica specimens, collected from Arendal, Norway. These specimens depict a “massive” crystal structure, as opposed to the more commonly seen sheets. Like all biotite mica, these specimens are dark in colour, exhibiting a dark grey to black hue. Mica is one of the most common mineral groups, with biotite being the most abundant member. Biotite is very common in igneous and metamorphic rocks, with the dark minerals in granites, pegmatites and gneiss often being due in some part to the presence of this black mica. This massive biotite are available in limited supply so we recommend you move fast if you wish to add a piece to your collection. Supplied in a white card tray with information label.

An off white coloured streak plate made form porcelain, they are used by field geologists and students as a means of performing streak tests on minerals. This test simply involves one, scratching the surface of the tile with a particular rock or mineral, the coloured streak left behind then assists the user in determining the mineral, or minerals within a rock sample.
Specimens of Chalcopyrite, collected from France. Chalcopyrite is a major copper ore. It has a brassy yellow colour and metallic lustre. Over time, this lustre will fade however as oxidation occurs. These specimens are available in multiple sizes and comes in a white card tray with an information label.

Introducing an outstanding triplet hand lens with a remarkable x 10 magnification and a wide 21 mm viewing field. This loupe enables detailed examination of specific areas within a sample. Crafted using three precision-ground glass elements (triplet optics), it delivers exceptionally clear vision. Additionally, this model features both LED and UV lighting options, making it an ideal tool for geologists and entomologists. In particular, for ex the fluorescent properties of minerals, crystals, and insects.
The lighting system consists of a ring of six bright white LEDs that enhance the visibility of your chosen sample. The single UV LED emits longwave fluorescence, causing many materials to emit a glowing effect in the dark.
Encased in durable plastic housing that seamlessly integrates with a stainless steel body, this loupe is powered by three LR297 button batteries (included). It comes with a key for easy battery replacement, and a leather case for added convenience. This versatile lens is an indispensable tool across various professions including geology, sedimentology, mineralogy, entomology, botany, jewelry making, gem cutting, and more
The Ruper hand lens is a renowned magnifier loupe favored by professionals and long-time enthusiasts across various industries. This specific jewelry loupe provides 10x magnification along with a spacious 20mm viewing field, helping reduce eye strain. It also allows users to examine a wide area at once. This Ruper model delivers exceptional clarity in vision thanks to its doublet design with aplantic optics. This means it utilises a combination of concave and convex optical glass to minimize the effects of spherical aberrations.
It’s worth emphasising that Ruper lenses are indeed doublets, despite common misconceptions and sellers’ claims of them being triplets. Their crafting process uses exclusively two optical lenses and a spacer. The lens comes in a stainless steel body with a chrome finish, displaying the ‘Ruper’ name on one side. Another premium magnifier and loupe from this esteemed Japanese brand, it proves invaluable for professionals and enthusiasts in fields like geology, crystallography, and sedimentology for enhanced viewing of rocks, minerals, fossils, and crystals. Additionally, it aids in botanical observations, entomological studies for detailed insect examination, as well as jewelry-making, faceting, and gemstone scrutiny, among other applications where magnification is essential. It comes with a faux leather case. Made in Japan.
