Learn about rocks and the minerals that form them with this great set, a partnership between National Geographic and Thames & Kosmos! Dig deeper and discover the fascinating crystal structures of these minerals. Much more than just a crystal growing kit, this experiment kit teaches you the chemistry of crystals and the geological science behind rock formation with more than 18 hands-on projects and investigations.
With this set you will grow three chemically different types of crystals; build three-dimensional geometric models of common crystal shapes including octahedrons, tetrahedrons, and rhomboids; mold your own crystal geode; and learn how to test and identify minerals with your very own collection of real specimens included in the kit. The set includes a full-color, 32-page experiment manual.
