samples FKM-476 to FKM-500

 

Check out the thin section scans introduction page for more information on the variety of samples featured here, how the scans were taken & processed for web display, and what additional optical and analytical data I hope to include in the figure captions as I continue to update the site and add to the collection of thin sections.

There’s also a fully searchable index covering the complete thin section set, listing for each sample its locality, the anticipated major minerals, a brief generalized geologic environment description, and where appropriate, the nature of any unusual element enrichments.

Note: Depending on the speed of your internet connection, it could take a minute or two for the images to load. If after the page looks like it’s finished loading but some of the thin section images appear to be missing, reloading the page will typically fix the problem.

***THIS PAGE IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION AND WAS PREPARED IN ANTICIPATION OF NEW SAMPLES NOT YET ACQUIRED***
Check back soon for updates… as funding allows, new sets of samples (usually 20-40 samples) are typically added twice per year.
