It is often mined for construction and infrastructure purposes, being used heavily in industry as concrete or in the home as countertops. Ideal for identification & classification exercises. Can be used to teach students about sedimentary petrology, chemical sedimentary rocks, and industrial geology.
While each specimen will vary slightly in shape, size and color, it will measure approximately 1" in length. Pack of 12. Each set is packaged in a transparent bag, labeled & barcoded for easy identification and storage.
