Geology Educational Materials
Sun Spotter Telescope
View the brilliant light of the sun safely with this wooden, folded-path Keplerian telescope.
Eisco™ Volcanic Tuff Specimen (Igneous Rock)
For use in exercises in igneous rock classification. EISCO Volcanic Tuff Specimen (Igneous Rock) is formed by ash and dust deposited during explosive volcanic eruptions that eventually become compacted and lithified, forming large packages of tuff. These
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™ 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.
United Scientific™ Glass Plates
Ideal for a wide variety of applications.
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.
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™ Contour Map Demonstration Model
Contour Map Demonstration Model showing hills, valleys, ridges, saddles, draws, spurs, cliffs, cuts and fills.
Eisco™ Underground Deposits Model
Underground Deposits Model showing mineral deposits, oil fields, salt mines and a coal seam.
Eisco™ Augen Gneiss Specimen (Metamorphic Rock)
For use in learning about differential stresses and foliation in metamorphic rocks. EISCO Augen Gneiss Specimen (Metamorphic Rock) is high-grade metamorphic rock formed from other rocks undergoing alteration from intense heat and pressure.
Eisco™ Galena Mineral Specimen
For use as tool to explain specific gravity to students - EISCO Galena Mineral Specimen is used in classroom identification labs and exercises, correlates well to Next Generation Science Standards Evidence Statements.
Eisco™ Premium Horizontal Strata Model
Demonstrates underlying strata and typical phenomenon of water erosion features in Arizona, Utah, the Grand Canyon, and the Grand Staircase. Includes a numbered key card to help students identify 27 distinct geological landscapes.
Eisco™ Sea Bottom Counter Model
Sea Bottom Counter Model showing the important features on the bottom of the sea.
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.
