Review: Nice set, good variety. - Bought this for a homeschooling project for Earth Science. Nice size and variety of rocks and minerals. The documentation the set comes with isn't great, so I used external resources to make the lesson more enjoyable for my student. Overall very pleased. Review: Complete kit, good pieces and very informative - All of the pieces were large and fun to go over with my son who is 9. Though he mainly wanted to just hold each mineral instead of actually testing and figuring out each one. We had a magnifying glass that he enjoyed looking at them through. ## Features - Mineral collection contains 20 samples - Set also includes a magnifier, streak plate, magnet, iron nail, index (sort) cards, sorting needle, and a lab manual - Samples are 1" to 2" in size and are individual marked with numbers for easy identification - Sorting (index) cards use a process of elimination to assist in identification - Samples are packaged in a plastic tray ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B008AK7AQE | | Age Range Description | Kid | | Best Sellers Rank | #423,124 in Toys & Games ( See Top 100 in Toys & Games ) #3,942 in Educational Science Kits | | Brand Name | Geosciences Industries | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 4.2 out of 5 stars (115) | | Educational Objective | Sorting Skill | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00848850102303 | | Included Components | Kit includes a streak plate, iron nail, magnifier, and magnet | | Is Assembly Required | No | | Item Dimensions | 14.3 x 7.6 x 1.4 inches | | Manufacturer | Geosciences Industries | | Manufacturer Maximum Age (MONTHS) | 180.0 | | Manufacturer Minimum Age (MONTHS) | 120.0 | | Manufacturer Part Number | 92373 | | Material Type | Plastic | | Model Number | 92373 | | Set Name | Mineral Identification Kit | | Sub Brand | Geosciences Industries | | Theme | Numbers | | UPC | 084885004421 848850102303 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | ## Images ![Geosciences Industries-92373 Mineral Identification Kit, Rock Samples for Studying Geology and Earth Science (Set of 20) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61YlKWTq-KL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice set, good variety. *by N***I on July 14, 2020* Bought this for a homeschooling project for Earth Science. Nice size and variety of rocks and minerals. The documentation the set comes with isn't great, so I used external resources to make the lesson more enjoyable for my student. Overall very pleased. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Complete kit, good pieces and very informative *by F***Y on January 4, 2015* All of the pieces were large and fun to go over with my son who is 9. Though he mainly wanted to just hold each mineral instead of actually testing and figuring out each one. We had a magnifying glass that he enjoyed looking at them through. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very happy with the purchase *by M***S on October 8, 2020* Swift delivery and every item in the box all in order. Only downside is like other reviewers mentioned, the mineral identification cards can be a tad confusing. But you will get the hang of it soon enough. ## Frequently Bought Together - Geosciences Industries-92373 Mineral Identification Kit, Rock Samples for Studying Geology and Earth Science (Set of 20) - EISCO Mineral ID Kit - 7 Pieces - Includes Streak Plate, Glass Plate, Dropper Bottle, Magnet, Nail, Copper Square & Retractable Hand Lens - Great for Geology Classrooms & Basic Field Testing - hand2mind White Streak Plates, Geology Tools, Streak Plates for Minerals, Mineral Test Kit, Rock Test, Hardness Test Kit, Science School Lab Supplies & Consumables, Scratch Plates (Pack of 10) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/9487382-geosciences-industries-92373-mineral-identification-kit-rock-samples-for-studying](https://www.desertcart.com.ar/products/9487382-geosciences-industries-92373-mineral-identification-kit-rock-samples-for-studying) --- *Product available on Desertcart Argentina* *Store origin: AR* *Last updated: 2026-05-19*
