This mineral identification kit provides a hands-on experience performing tests to identify minerals, and is designed for classroom use. Sorting cards use the process of elimination to assist students with identification, and the included streak plate, iron nail, magnifier, and magnet allow students to test for hardness, luster, streak, and color. The kit includes 20 samples along with an identification sheet. Samples are 1" to 2" in size and are individually marked for easy identification. Samples include- milky quartz, microcline feldspar, muscovite, mica, biotite mica, calcite, hornblende, gypsum, talc, graphite, hematite, fluorite, sulfur, limonite, nepheline, rose quartz, barite, chalcopyrite, galena, pyrite, and magnetite. Collection is designed for grades 5 and up. Science education products incorporate applied math and science principles into classroom projects. Teachers in pre-K, elementary, and secondary classrooms use science education kits and products alongside science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) curriculum to demonstrate STEM concepts and real-world applications through hands-on activities. Science education projects include a broad range of activities, such as practical experiments in engineering, aeronautics, robotics, energy, chemistry, physics, biology, and geology.
