Pink granite which is from China, exhibits typical granitic rock texture, composed of the usual grnaite minerals such as quartz, feldspar and mica, however these rock specimens from China appear to exhibit a higher composition of biotite mica, making these specimens appear more darker than the specimens we have from Scotland. We can supply this item in two sizes and all pieces come in a card tray with an information label.

Greisen metamorphic rock specimens from Caldbeck Fells, Cumbria, composed mainly of quartz and mica with an off yellow colouration. The rock is known as an endoskarn and forms when hydrothermal fluid and heat alter a granitic body, resulting a heavily altered rock which may contain trace amounts of rare elements. These samples are suitable for advanced collectors and higher level education and are available in three sizes, each pieces will come supplied in a card tray with a label.
We also supply Greisen thin sections for microscope study which are available to buy HERE.

Phonolite igneous rock specimens, an intrusive crystalline version of nepheline syenite, this rock lies between felsic and mafic composition, collected from Traprain Law, Soctland, the name of the rock is derived from the ancient Greek word which means ‘sounding stone’. Which alludes to the feature this rock has of emitting a metallic ringing when struck. Samples are available in various sizes and come supplied in a card tray with a label.

Gabbro igneous rock specimens from Balmedie quarry, Aberdeen, Scotland which exhibit a coars grained texture from the crystals. Formed as a mafic pluton intrusion, the samples contain pyroxenes such as augite along side plagioclase feldspar, amphibole and olivine crystals. They are derived from a body known as the Belhelvie basic intrusion which the parent unit being the Caledonian Supersuite. Samples exhibit a grey colouration and density and are suitable for the more serious or professional collector or higher educational use to differentiate similar looking igneous rocks with different compositions and origins. Available in three sizes, the specimens come supplied in a card tray with an information label.
