Geology Educational Materials
Eisco™ Sea Bottom Counter Model
Sea Bottom Counter Model showing the important features on the bottom of the sea.
Eisco Labs Cross-Sectional Comparative Terrain Landform Model
Designed to compare terrain and geological formations, removable mountain overlay to show landscape changes and landform development.
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™ Underground Deposits Model
Underground Deposits Model showing mineral deposits, oil fields, salt mines and a coal seam.
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™ 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.
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.
United Scientific™ Glass Streak Plates
Used for hardness testing of rocks and minerals.
Eisco™ Contour Map Demonstration Model
Contour Map Demonstration Model showing hills, valleys, ridges, saddles, draws, spurs, cliffs, cuts and fills.
Eisco™ Seismograph Model
This freestanding seismograph model simulates all the parts of a seismograph and can produce a record of localized movement by running a pencil over a roll of paper. The measurements made by the seismograph can be studied and analyzed, allowing students to compare several different seismic events.
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™ Karst, Caves and Water Action Landform Model
Karst, Caves and Water Action Landform Model showing the physical, mechanical and chemical effect of water on geomorphology.
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™ 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.
Sun Spotter Telescope
View the brilliant light of the sun safely with this wooden, folded-path Keplerian telescope.
