Garnet Specimen, Hand Sample
A garnet hand sample, about 3–4 inches. Garnet forms under intense heat and pressure, so it is common in mountain belts, and it serves as an abrasive, for example on sandpaper. Garnet varies in form and colour; this sample is massive and deep red. It suits lessons on metamorphic facies, silicate minerals and general mineral identification. Sized for classroom identification labs and aligned with NGSS evidence statements; supplied in a clear, labelled, barcoded bag.
