Photomicrographs of Your Thin or Polished Sections: $125/per set per sample

For an additional $125, you can request photomicrographs of your thin or polished sections in

a CD, taken by using high-resolution, latest-model, state-of-the-art digital cameras at-

tached to research-grade petrographic microscopes. Set includes a full scan of your thin sec-

tion in both plain and crossed polarized-light modes, as well as at least three sets of plane

and cross polarized-light micrographs will be provided per sample, with scale bars, depicting

the detailed mineralogy, grain and pore size distribution, and texture of the rock.

Petrographic Examinations $1000 per sample

Optical Microscopical examinations of thin sections in plane and cross polarized lights, and

polished sections in reflected-light, XRD, XRF, SEM, etc. to determine detailed mineralogy,

estimated modal (volume) proportions of different minerals, texture and microstructure, al-

teration, classification, and type of rock. Each report will include at least one set of photomi-

crographs per sample taken in plane and cross polarized-light modes with a high-resolution

digital camera attached to a research-grade petrographic microscope. Price includes optical

microscopy, XRD, XRF, SEM, and sample preparation.

Report of Petrographic Examinations $250 per report
