EISCO Red Sandstone Specimen (Sedimentary Rock), Approx. 1" (3cm) - Pack of 12
Brand: EISCO
Sandstone is made up of well-sorted and well-rounded grains of quartz. This indicates that the clasts in the rocks have traveled a long distance from their source and were heavily eroded along the way. This sample is red due to the inclusion of iron in the chemical structure of the rock.
Details
- Twelve red sandstone samples approximately 1" (3cm) in size
- The color of this sample is due to oxidized iron becoming interspersed with the sand grains during lithification
- Perfect size for use in classroom identification labs and exercises, correlates well to Next Generation Science Standards Evidence Statements
- Ideal for students to compare with white sandstone to understand physical expression of chemical differences
- Specimen comes in clear labeled and barcoded bag for ideal storage
