Subduction Rocks (set of 3) This set of 3 subduction-related rock specimens helps students study the metamorphic changes that occur under the high-pressure, low-temperature conditions found along subduction zones.
Subduction Rocks (set of 3) is priced at approximately ₹480 (indicative market benchmark, incl. GST, August 2026).
Product Description
This set of three rock specimens represents metamorphic rock types associated with subduction zones, where high-pressure, low-temperature conditions produce distinctive mineral transformations. Students can compare the specimens to study how pressure and temperature gradients change rock composition and texture along a subduction boundary. This set is a practical resource for college and advanced secondary geology coursework covering plate tectonics and metamorphism.
