Geology Educational Materials
Eisco™ Hornblende (Amphibole Mineral) Specimen
For use in studying both igneous and metamorphic rocks. EISCO Hornblende (Amphibole Mineral) Specimen is part of group of minerals known as amphiboles, which are chemically and structurally similar to pyroxenes, but include water in their atomic structure
Eisco™ Peridotite Specimen (Igneous Rock)
For use in comparing with other igneous rocks, particularly as part of lessons on Bowen's reaction series. EISCO Peridotite Specimen (Igneous Rock) is iron-rich ultramafic rock, with chemistry that suggests genesis from point deep within crust.
United Scientific™ Glass Plates
Ideal for a wide variety of applications.
United Scientific Black Streak Plates, 1 x 2 in.
Streak plates designed for hardness testing of rocks and minerals.
United Scientific™ Earthquake Shake Table
Earthquake Shake Table features sturdy and innovative design to help students visualize how Earthquakes affect structures.
Eisco™ Fact and Fault Model
Useful for illustrating important folds and faults found in Earth's crust. Students can understand fold planes, the effect of tectonics stress, and structural elements of a fault.
Eisco™ Seismograph Model
This freestanding seismograph model simulates all the parts of a seismograph and can produce a record of localized movement by running a pencil over a roll of paper. The measurements made by the seismograph can be studied and analyzed, allowing students to compare several different seismic events.
Eisco™ Contour Map Demonstration Model
Contour Map Demonstration Model showing hills, valleys, ridges, saddles, draws, spurs, cliffs, cuts and fills.
Eisco™ Fold and Fault Model
Illustrates important folds and faults found in Earth's crust. Model provides a visual/tactile view of symmetric, asymmetric, recumbent, over thrust, and neppe folds. Normal, reverse, strike slip, horst and graben faults are also represented.
Eisco™ Tectonics Model
Tectonics Model showing detailed representations of the Earth's layers, including both active and passive margins, oceanic ridges with rift valley, Benioff plane, oceanic trenches, continental shelf and slopes.
United Scientific Mineral Test Kit
Mineral Test Kit for rock, mineral, and fossil identification.
Eisco™ Amphibolite Specimen (Metamorphic Rock)
For use in studying hydrothermal alteration of rocks and minerals. EISCO Amphibolite Specimen (Metamorphic Rock) is formed from hornblende that has undergone significant amount of differential pressure.
United Scientific Supplies Tectonics Model Set
Demonstrates plate tectonic principles, plate boundary interactions, and the geometry/relative motions of faulting of geological layers
Eisco™ Fractures, Faults and Dislocations Model
Excellent way to illustrate various structures related to fault planes and fractures.
United Scientific DC Ammeter, 0-1A/0-5A
Ammeter for use in electricity demonstrations.
