Product Overview

When clay- and aluminum-rich rock is altered by water from geothermal systems, serpentinite is liable to form. Often found in low-grade metamorphic areas, serpentinite is composed of hydrated silicate minerals, particularly phyllosilicates. Ideal for teaching students about rounding and sorting, as well as for identification & classification exercises. Greenish in color and smooth to the touch, serpentinite is often found as a plane of weakness in faulted rocks. Excellent for lessons on metamorphic rocks, low-grade deformation, and structural 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 individually packaged, labeled & barcoded for easy identification and storage.
