Fool’s gold is actually a brassy yellow mineral called pyrite. Dig your own fool’s gold from the plaster treasure chest with this excavation kit! Age 6+
This kit allows you or your child to have a taste of what it is like to excavate an artifact for study. While not exactly what it would be like "in the field," it allows a child to discover scientific methods and make observations.
Instructions from the back of the package:
1. The package contains an earthen block, hammer, chisel and brush. Place the block on an easy to clean surface or big sheet of paper.
2. Use the diggin tool to gently scrape away the plaster. When you see an object through the plaster, continue digging very carefully. Dig away all the plaster around the object before removing it.
3. Remove the remaining plaster specimen with the brush or a cloth. If necessary you can wash off the remaining plaster with water.
Warning: Choking hazard - small parts, not for children under 3 yrs.
