Feel Property Collection, Set of 10 This 10-specimen ‘feel property’ collection lets students investigate tactile mineral characteristics like greasiness, roughness, and oiliness, an often-overlooked identification technique.
Feel Property Collection, Set of 10 is priced at approximately ₹425 (indicative market benchmark, incl. GST, August 2026).
Product Description
This 10-specimen collection lets students investigate tactile mineral properties — how a mineral feels to the touch. Characteristics like greasiness, roughness, and oiliness are genuine diagnostic clues geologists use alongside other properties, and this set gives students a range of specimens to compare these tactile qualities directly. It bridges theoretical mineralogy with hands-on material analysis in secondary and vocational earth science laboratories.
