In Mineralogy, the science that studies minerals, a system based on chemical composition is used to classify minerals.
This divides it into 9 classes: Native elements; sulfides; halides; oxides and hydroxides; nitrates; carbonates and borates; sulfates, chromates, molybates and tungstates; phosphates, arsenates and vanadates; silicate and organic compounds.
With this large collection you will discover the most representative minerals of each type, ideal for training activities.
Discover the most typical origin of each mineral and the most important mineral groups!
The Collection Includes 24 Representative Samples of the following Minerals:
Copper – USA, Sulfur – Sicily, Rose Quartz – Madagascar, Fluorite – China, Quartz – Brazil, Magnetite – Spain, Siderite – Austria, Galena – USA, Cinnabar – Spain, Pyrite – Peru, Sphalerite (Blende) – Spain, Oligisto – Italy, Calcite - USA, Aragonite - Morocco, Malachite - DR Congo, Silvina - Spain, Mica - Canada, Beryl - Portugal, Kyanite - Brazil, Gypsum Mirror - Spain, Barite - Morocco, Lapis Lazuli - Afghanistan, Ortosa - USA, Black Tourmaline - Brazil.
The pieces you receive may differ slightly from the photo shown as the minerals are natural and no piece is identical. The size is approximate.
