Rocksample.com is both a physical and digital geologic library.  It is a place for the geologic community to organize and centralize their experimental samples.  Researchers can keep track of their geologic samples, along with all of the other samples in the library, through the online database.   Research paper information and other geologic data about that specific sample will be uploaded, and all information is searchable.  Researchers can contact each other through the site to ask questions or request some of the owner's sample.  Samples can be shipped as is, or our sister company, Itutoy, can cut and prepare the samples to the specific requirements of the researcher.

" I had enough sample material for my set of experiments...I thought"  

We have all been there - you order just enough material for your experiments because you know you have no place in your lab to store anything else.  With Rock Sample Library that can be avoided.  Instead of ordering one block of rock, order 2 or 5 or 100 blocks and have them stored at the Rock Sample Library.  Future experiments can be performed with the exact same sample that has the exact same properties.  No more ordering from the quarry 5 years later when it is 50 feet deeper with different properties.  The sample material will be available any time you need it, and can be easily shared with other researchers if you choose.
