Slate Specimen, Slate Specimen for use in metamorphic classification and identification exercises., Each

Details

Here is the corrected text: This raw slate specimen is a single sample measuring approximately 1" in length. Slate is formed by compressing shale, resulting in a denser rock that retains its fissile properties, making it an interesting exercise to distinguish from shale. Ideal for metamorphic rock identification exercises due to its recognizable platy foliation. While each specimen may vary slightly in shape, size, and color, every sample is individually packaged, labeled, and barcoded for easy identification and storage. Selected and processed by a geologist, each specimen exhibits defining features. Our rocks and minerals are sourced from various locations worldwide and hand-processed in Victor, NY. If you have any questions or need additional information about our rock and mineral samples, please don't hesitate to reach out to our team of scientists and geologists for technical support.
