Details

Here is the corrected text: Red Slate: This slate is very lightly metamorphosed and well-foliated, making it difficult to distinguish from its parent rock, shale. The two can be told apart by the difference in pitch when struck. Great for Geology Classrooms: Ideal for identification and classification exercises, slate is perfect for lessons on metamorphic rocks and alteration. This set of six samples is excellent for group study and examination. Geologist Selected: Each specimen is carefully selected and hand-processed by an actual geologist, ensuring that each sample exhibits its defining features. Locally Processed: Our rock and mineral samples are sourced from a variety of locations around the world and processed in Rochester, NY. Individually Packaged & Labeled: Each specimen sample is packaged in a transparent bag and labeled with a barcode for easy identification.
