Biotite Muscovite Granite £2.25 – £6.00 ex VAT

Biotite muscovite granite specimens from St. Austell in Cornwall, UK of Permian age is a coarse grained igneous rock composed of quartz, plagioclase feldspar, biotite and muscovite. The rock is part of the St. Austell pluton which formed 280 million years ago. An off white colour with gold and black flecks of micas, the rock has a unique chemistry and resulted in the rich mineralisation of ores in the area. The samples are suitable for collectors and educational use to show granite variants, available in three sizes. Each piece will come supplied in a card tray with an information label.

We also supply Biotite Muscovite Granite thin sections for microscope study which are available to buy HERE.

Basalt
Basalt £2.25 – £6.00 ex VAT

Specimens of Basalt, collected from Northern Ireland. Basalt is a common, extrusive igneous rock, that forms when magma erupts and cools quickly on the Earth’s surface. These specimens are part of the Antrim lava group and date to the Tertiary period, around 60 million years ago. This is the same as the Basalt that makes up the famous Giant’s Causeway. The chemistry of these specimens suggests that the rock is olivine basalt, and comprises plagioclase feldspar, olivine and augite. These specimens are available in multiple sizes and come in a white card tray with an information label.

We also supply Basalt thin sections for microscope study which are available to buy HERE.
