Product Overview
Diorite straddles the line between mafic and felsic rock chemistry, making it ideal for lessons in bulk chemistry. The minerals within diorite can be readily identified due to their large size, and by comparing the relative abundance of each mineral, a rough chemical makeup can be obtained. While each specimen will vary slightly in shape, size and color, it will measure approximately 3" in length. Each is individually packaged, labeled & barcoded for easy identification and storage.
