Expanded Rock Collection

Rocks are our window into the past: how the Earth formed, what happened before humans appeared and when the continents formed. These are all things we can learn about by studying rocks!

This kit contains 43 different rock specimens to help you start your very own rock collection. In the kit you'll find examples of each of the three major types of rocks: igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic.

You'll also get a great study guide that contains extensive information about each of the specimens and a display case so you can keep track of your collection. Soon you'll be a geological genius!
