About This Product
Used in school and college geology and Earth science lessons, the set lets learners examine real samples rather than textbook pictures. Students record colour, shine, crystal form and texture, compare hardness with teacher-approved scratch-test materials and classify each mineral by its physical properties. It also supports lessons on ores and natural resources. The Minerals Set of 20 is available for supply within India and for export to Trinidad and Tobago, Bahrain, Mexico, Kyrgyzstan and Luxembourg.
