RAW SCORIA
1" Igneous Rock Specimen
Scoria forms as spatter from bubbly, mafic lava is thrown into the air and cooled quickly. The crystallization happens so quickly that large air pockets are trapped within the rock, often giving samples a jagged, sharp appearance. Excellent for classroom mineral study and identification. A good example of pyroclastic material. Can be used in a variety of igneous classification exercises.

This review is for the EISCO 6PK Raw Scoria, Igneous Rock Specimen - Approx. 1"- Geologist Selected & Hand Processed - Great for Science Classrooms. The Igneous Rock Specimen are just like shown, they are good quality, no issues. I placed the Igneous Rock’s in my gnome garden as garden décor along with a few other rocks and gemstones. Overall, I received good quality rocks like pictured, would make a great gift.

I knew it wouldn't look anything like the picture, but I hoped it would be a little dramatic. It's not. Looks like a piece of rock you'd find in a patch of gravel or a fire pit. Darker than what you'd find on the ground, with some little pits in it. That's it. Dull.
