Augite (Pyroxene Mineral) Specimen, Pack of 12

Details

Here is the corrected text: Augite is a common rock-forming pyroxene mineral that forms as magma cools. It's an essential sample for lessons on Bowen's reaction series. Great for geology classrooms, it's ideal for identification and classification exercises. Augite's perpendicular planes of cleavage make it an excellent tool for studying 2-plane, 90° cleavage. This set of six samples is perfect for group study and examination. Geologist Selected: Each specimen is carefully selected and hand-processed by a geologist, ensuring each sample exhibits defining features. Locally Processed: Our rock and mineral samples are sourced from various locations worldwide and are processed in Victor, NY. Labeled Packaging: The set is packaged in a transparent bag, labeled, and barcoded for easy identification.
