Here is the corrected text: Single Raw Breccia Specimen - 1" Sample. The large, angular clasts in breccia make it possible to confidently ascertain the depositional history of the rock. These grains imply that they have not undergone much alteration and have not traveled far from their source. Ideal for teaching students about rounding and sorting, as well as for identification and classification exercises, this contrasts well with conglomerate, a very similar rock with clasts that have traveled a long way from their provenance. While each specimen will vary slightly in shape, size, and color, it will measure approximately 1" in length. Each is individually packaged, labeled, and barcoded for easy identification and storage. Selected and Processed by a Geologist. Each specimen is selected and hand-processed by an actual geologist, ensuring that each sample exhibits defining features.
