One side of the rock chip is flattened (by sawing and grinding) and is glued to a glass slide, usually with epoxy. The rock chip is trimmed with a special rock saw, and then thinned on a grinder. This produces a thin slab of rock glued to the glass, which is thinned to 30 micrometers on a polishing wheel. Once the section is 30 micrometers ...

Thin sections are prepared in order to investigate the optical properties of the minerals in the rock. This work is a part of petrology and helps to reveal the origin and evolution of the parent rock. A photograph of a rock in thin section is often referred to as a photomicrograph. Thin sections are also used in the microscopic study of bones ...

With the stronger bond, failures are minimized, and both coarse and final grinding of the section can be hastened. Large 2- or 3~inch thin sections of rock as well as normal-size thin sections can be prepared on ordinary glass whose surface has been ground flat by this method (fig. 2).

Rock & Soil Thin Section Production. In many areas of Geological study, such as mineralogy, petrography or sedimentology, there is the need for samples to be examined microscopically. This is normally carried out using transmitted polarised light which creates a need for thin sections of known and exact thickness. This technique requires the ...

Introduction. The petrographic thin section is a sample of rock reduced in thickness to 30 μm and with polished surfaces such that when viewed in a petrographic microscope the mineral content, mineral abundance, mineral associations, rock texture, and mineral alteration can be determined.Petrographic thin sections have been in use …

Lap the base of the potted sample then mount to the glass slide and set in the Geofix for a further 8-10 hours. This sample can then be placed either back on the Geocut or the Geoform to create the size of sample you require for the next stage.
