Lapworth Museum

1. How have the museum pieces been explored and/or analysed?

2. Is it clear what their chemical composition and structure is?

3. Are they grouped or organised in a systematic way based on structure, composition, or properties?

4. What has their analysis added to the pieces?

5. Where have they come from and how did they end up in the museum?

6. What value do these items have (culturally, financially, scientifically)?

7. Then, elsewhere on campus, consider the landscape around you - how are these rocks different from those you observed in the museum?
