Product Code : SCL-ALE-11956
Minerals Collection Set (SKU SCL-ALE-11956) is an educational collection of naturally occurring mineral specimens for introducing students to minerals through direct observation, comparison and guided study. It suits geography, geology, Earth science and general science lessons in schools and colleges. Science Lab Supplies sources the collection and dispatches it from Ambala, India, quoting geography departments, college laboratories, resellers and tender contractors directly.
Specifications
Real mineral specimens for hands-on study make up this set, and the table records each specification. In short, it gives students physical samples on which to compare colour, lustre, texture and crystal form; the specimen count, mineral names, sample size, labelling and storage are confirmed on the quotation.

Applications and Experiments for the Minerals Collection Set
Laid out on a clean, stable bench, the specimens let a class observe and compare visible properties, then sort them according to the aim of the lesson. Each mineral is identified from the labels, key or documentation supplied with the set, which links textbook mineralogy to real samples and trains careful scientific recording.
- Middle-school science and geography: what minerals are and how they differ from rocks.
- Earth science: comparing lustre and crystal form through the 50 mm Hand Lens with White Plastic Handle.
- Geology or mineralogy introductions: relating each identified specimen to its observable properties.
- Field-style observation practice with the 5X/10X Double Lens Folding Pocket Magnifier.
Do not grind, crush, heat, taste or inhale dust from unidentified specimens; destructive tests need confirmed identification and supervision.
Standard Scope of Supply
The Minerals Collection Set is supplied as a collection of mineral specimens. The quotation names the minerals, states how many specimens there are, gives their size and labelling, and describes the storage arrangement, so a department can compare the selection with its syllabus before the order is confirmed.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
A quotation can cover one mineral collection for a single geography room or a set for each laboratory in a school group. Each one gives packing, delivery time and price for the requested quantity, and rock specimens, magnifiers or other science kits for students in India can be listed on the same document.
With an Importer-Exporter Code in place, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Nepal, Bangladesh, Zambia, Rwanda, South Africa and Qatar. Science Lab Supplies is registered for GST (GSTIN 06ADEPJ0574F2ZU). To ask for a specimen-set price, write via the contact page, place the item in the enquiry cart, or check the lab tender page for a formal bid.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a mineral and a rock?
A mineral is a naturally occurring substance with a characteristic composition, structure and physical properties. A rock is generally made up of one or more minerals or other geological material, which is why this collection pairs well with a rock specimen set.
Which minerals are included in the collection?
The mineral names and the number of specimens are given on the quotation, so the list can be checked before ordering. In class, identify each specimen only from its supplied label or key rather than by appearance alone.
Can students run hardness or streak tests on the specimens?
Observation and comparison are the intended uses. Hardness, streak, acid or other destructive tests should be done only after the identity of the specimen is confirmed and the teacher has set a suitable, supervised safety procedure.
Who supplies the Minerals Collection Set?
Mineral specimen orders are handled end to end by Science Lab Supplies in Ambala, India, from quotation to dispatch. As a school science kit supplier in India, it can combine the minerals with rock and metal specimen sets in one consignment.
