Title
A name given to the resource
(GC) Grand Canyon Stratigraphic Suite -- Grand Canyon, Arizona
Description
An account of the resource
This collection contains 21 samples. They are a representation of samples of lithology from the early precambrian to the late permian. The stratigraphic sequence contains a variety of rocks including, but not limited to schist, limestone, and sandstone. These specimens are representative of the geologic section in the Grand Canyon, but no specimens were collected within the boundaries of the National Park.

Title
A name given to the resource
(GC) Grand Canyon Stratigraphic Suite -- Grand Canyon, Arizona
Description
An account of the resource
This collection contains 21 samples. They are a representation of samples of lithology from the early precambrian to the late permian. The stratigraphic sequence contains a variety of rocks including, but not limited to schist, limestone, and sandstone. These specimens are representative of the geologic section in the Grand Canyon, but no specimens were collected within the boundaries of the National Park.

Title
A name given to the resource
(SFM) Igneous Suite -- St. Francois Mountains, Southeastern Missouri
Description
An account of the resource
This collection is composed of igneous volcanic and intrusive rocks from the St. Francois Mountains of Missouri. The variation within the collection can be used to explain the geologic history of the area. The St. Francois Mountains batholith was formed by granitic intrusions into Precambrian rhyolites, tuffs, and breccias. Then basalt, diabase, and porphyritic intrusions cut the granitoids.

Description
An account of the resource
A classic example of Barrovian-type metamorphism in Dutchess County, NY associated with the Taconic orogeny. A Barrovian metamorphic sequence displays gradual pressure and temperature increase along the metamorphic gradient, and occurs during regional metamorphism. These zones of pressure and temperature increase are recognizable by the characteristic minerals that accompany them. Dutchess County, NY contains an unusually complete sequence.
This collection contains metamorphic rocks from chlorite grade to sillimanite grade in a tight spatial window which records the regional metamorphic gradient increasing from WNW to ESE. This collection also contains some rocks that mirror the protoliths of the schists and quartzites of the sequence (shales and graywacke).

Description
An account of the resource
Extremely coarse-grained muscovite schist. Large garnets visible in hand sample. Sillimanite is not recognizable in hand sample, however.
The thin section shows muscovite (with minor sillimanite) in a large band, biotite, staurolite, and quartz.
This rock is from the sillimanite zone of the Barrovian metamorphic sequence (highest metamorphism).

(PH) Powderhorn (Iron Hill) Carbonatite Suite -- Gunnison County, SW Colorado
Description
An account of the resource
The Powderhorn (Iron Hill) Carbonatite is located in Gunnison County in about the center of the southwestern quadrant of Colorado. It is a pear-shaped body which is essentially conical at depth, and is exposed over an area of about 12 square miles. The carbonatite body covers about 2 and a half square miles; About 70 percent of the in pyroxenite which was subsequently intruded by or replaced by nepheline and melilite-bearing rocks; magnetite-perovskite, and carbonatite.
