Unrivaled Accuracy and Detail:

This meticulously crafted folder consolidates all essential visual and tactile references into one portable unit. It allows you to quickly and precisely identify:

  • Grain Size: Featuring six actual, high-quality grain samples, including Silt, Very Fine Sand, Fine Sand, Medium Sand, Coarse Sand, and Very Coarse Sand. These tangible references ensure tactile and visual accuracy, removing any ambiguity from your analysis. Furthermore, clear measurement limits for Granules, Pebbles, Cobbles, and Boulders are conveniently indicated, providing a complete scale for all sediment types.
  • Grain Shape, Roundness, and Sphericity: An integrated sphericity/roundness measuring chart provides a clear visual guide for classifying the shape characteristics of your grains. To further enhance your understanding and identification, the folder includes four actual grain samples precisely illustrating Angular, Subangular, Subrounded, and Rounded shapes.
  • Grain Sorting: Printed examples of both well-sorted and poorly-sorted grain samples are provided across fine, medium, and coarse ranges. These visual aids allow for quick comparison and accurate classification of the sorting characteristics of your geological samples.

 

Designed for the Field:

Built with durability in mind, this pocket-sized folder is robust enough to withstand the rigors of field use. Its compact design ensures it fits comfortably into any field kit, vest, or pocket, making it readily accessible whenever you need it.
