Re: Rocks & Minerals B/C ID/Question Marathon
So in preparation for States I was going through the many rocks and minerals our school has from when it taught Geology a million years ago. Although we must have hundreds of specimens, only a small portion are labeled (some have numbers but we can't find the key), and I myself can't identify all of them. Today I took pictures of a few of them: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/450 ... nowns.docx
Any suggestions?
(I'm assuming all of them are on the 2014 list; they should be because they came from sets of common specimens)
