Here is the corrected text: OLIVINE | Much of the Earth's surface is covered in oceanic crust, of which olivine is a major component. With the highest crystallization temperature, olivine is the first mineral to form in magma, making it a useful geothermometer. GREAT FOR GEOLOGY CLASSROOMS | Ideal for identification and classification exercises, this set is also great for lessons on hardness, fracture, and luster. Its massive earthy habit is a perfect example of nonmetallic luster. This set of six samples is excellent for group study and examination. GEOLOGIST SELECTED | Each specimen is selected and hand-processed by an actual geologist, ensuring that each sample exhibits defining features. LOCALLY PROCESSED | Our rock and mineral samples are sourced from a variety of locations around the world and are processed in Victor, NY. INDIVIDUALLY PACKAGED & LABELED | Each specimen sample is packaged in a transparent bag and labeled and barcoded for easy identification. Raw Olivine Specimen Set of 12 Samples, 1" in length.
