Eisco – Raw Biotite Gneiss Rock Sample Approx 2.75" – Coarse-Grained Foliated Metamorphic Rock – Geologic Teaching Specimen for Earth Science Labs, Mineral Identification, Classroom Collections

This raw Biotite Gneiss hand sample is a coarse-grained metamorphic rock with visible mineral banding and foliation, ideal for teaching geologic processes. Approximately 2.75", and commonly used in earth science classrooms, labs, and field kits, it demonstrates mineral segregation, recrystallization, and structural alignment. Suitable for rock cycle instruction, texture analysis, and comparative rock studies. Unpolished and representative of natural metamorphic formation.
