The sedimentary rock texture card is made for earth science students, it displays numerous bites of information on how to determine an sedimentary rock specimen found in the field such as grain size, texture and an indication to the energy required to form the rock. The cards have been laminated, making them waterproof, small, the size of a bank card and an excellent to hand guide for students, amateurs and professionals.

The Sedimentary field data card contains information of sedimentary rock texturesyou may typically encounter in the field, such as cross bedding, laminations, limestone textures and more. Also explained is the energy input required from estuarine and oceanic deposits, e.g. low energy results in finer grain size rocks such as siltstones and clays. The card has been laminated so is waterproof and wont rip, making it ideal for students and also professional geologists, having a handy reference available at short notice, especially if you are about to partake in your field mapping projects.
(Please note: you only get a single card, the image merely displays what is printed on each side of the card)

The metamorphic rock texture card is made for earth science students, it displays numerous bites of information on how to determine an metamorphic rock specimen found in the field via their observable features. The cards have been laminated, making them waterproof, small, the size of a bank card and an excellent to hand guide for students, amateurs and professionals.
A5 in size, the card contains relevant geological data on both sides. One side contains over 40 different sedimentary logging symbols such as ‘Breccia’, ‘cross bedding’, ‘tuff’, and so forth.. On the opposite side, a wide variety of common geological mapping symbols are printed including ‘inclined strata’, ‘faults’, ‘mineral veins’ etc. Also includes a geological time scale.
The card is printed onto translucent plastic for easy reading and comparing against grain size and texture in the field. The card includes a sorting chart, roundness scale and percentage by area images and is 149mm x 72mm, made from plastic it is completely waterproof and tear resistant.
High-tech disposable fibrepen with metal-framed round tip, in 4 stroke widths, water resistant once dry, lightfast pigment ink. Includes cap with a stainless steel clip.

The igneous rock texture card is made for earth science students, it displays numerous bites of information on how to determine an igneous specimen found in the field such as grain size, silica and mineral content and other observable features. The cards have been laminated, making them waterproof, small, the size of a bank card and an excellent to hand guide for students, amateurs and professionals.

Accretionary lapilli tuff is an igneous pyroclastic rock, these samples come from Longsleddle, Cumbria in the UK and forms when hot ash and debris is ejected from as volcano. Some of this material is held together by moisture and once heavy enough, falls into the ash below forming small ‘spots’ within the material, creating a speckled rock. The samples are suitable both for young and serious collectors as well as educational use and are supplied in various sizes with a card tray and label.

Ignimbirte welded tuff is a pyroclastic rock of any origin formed through volcanic processes, the rock appears to show streaks of welded material on some surfaces and appears to be rhyolitic on the inside. Specimens come from Cumbria and are available in various sizes.
We also supply Welded Tuff thin sections for microscope study which are available to buy HERE.

Field scale card, completely waterproof, features 10 cm scale, 4 inch scale and 30 mm scale for use when taking photographs in the field.
Quartz monzonite igneous rock specimen from Ratagan, Scotland. Associated to granites, yet containing only 5% to 20% quartz, making it a monzonite, these intrusive felsice rocks are igneous in origin and are available in different sizes, supplied in a white card tray with a label.

Streak plates in a black colour made form porcelain, tough and ideal for performing streak tests, to asses minerals or mineral content of a rock sample, each plate is 45 x 45 mm in size and has a fine texture surface. Excellent for field geologists and earth science students.
The Estwing E6-24PC geological hammer, also known as the ‘Big Blue’ hammer is a pointed tip strike tool which features a wider flat face, delivering more force per strike, making breaking and crushing of rock much easier. It also features a pointed tip, suitable for picking and prying material as well as allowing careful extraction of fossils or crystals from matrix. The hammer is made from a single piece of drop forged American steel and utilises a anti shock vinyl handle for comfort.

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.

Agglomerate igneous rock specimens from Scotland, UK. A coarse grained, hard blocky rock exhibiting a conglomeration of various minerals and igneous material of volcanic origin. These samples formed part of the Glen Coe caldera and are apart of the upper streaky andesite unit, the exhibit poor sorting and orientation of material which indicates a somewhat violent origin but this can vary from agglomerates by location and is mainly down to the chemistry of the igneous material. The samples are available in 3 sizes and come supplied in a card tray with a label, they are suitable for educational use to show the different types of volcanic rocks produced as well as those interested in collecting rock samples.
Brockram Breccia specimens sourced from Hoff, Cumbria, UK. Breccia, a type of clastic sedimentary rock, is characterized by its coarse-grained and poorly sorted nature, containing large angular fragments embedded in a finer-grained matrix.
Brockram is a basal breccia, composed of cemented limestone and sandstone fragments originating from the Permian period. The Permian was the last period of the Paleozoic era and occurred approximately 299 – 251 million years ago.
These samples are available in various sizes and are presented in a white card tray along with accompanying information label.
Granodiorite specimens from Cumbria, UK. These rocks originate from the Ordovician era, dating back roughly 443 to 448 million years. This Granodiorite, derived from Eskdale granite outcrops, exhibit a coarse-grained texture and represents a blend of granite and diorite characteristics.. While sharing mineral components like quartz, feldspar, and mica with granites, its distinctiveness lies in the elevated levels of plagioclase and mafic minerals like biotite, hornblende, and augite. Notably, this specific Granodiorite variety boasts a significant biotite content. Available in three different sizes, these specimens come supplied in a white card tray with information label.
We also supply Granodiorite thin sections for microscope study which are available to buy HERE.
Waterproof sedimentary logging sheet, printing on completely waterproof paper allowing you to create sedimentary logs and make field notes on site, what ever the weather. Features a customisable scale, columns for logging textures and making various notes with spaces to fill in crucial data for your project. Supplied in increments of 5, a must have for any form of field work.
