[meteorite-list] New micrographs Angrite at 2100X cross pol

[Thetoprok at aol.com]

Tom, List,

Fantastic!

Those  are some great photo's Tom. The 2100x images of the angrite are very 
cool, I'd  like to see more at that magnification. I like the one that looks 
like a little  computer board or something, on SAH 99555. Very interesting, 
anyone know what  that is all about?
If any of you haven't been to the Meteorite Times page  featuring Tom's work, 
you should check it out. Natures beauty captured in  micro..Sweet

Keep up the great work Tom,
Larry

Hi list.  Paul has set up a new batch to  my  Meteorite Micrograph Gallery 
hosted by Meteorite   Times.

http://www.meteorite.com/meteorite-gallery/index.htm

The   new material is:

Santa Vitoria do Palmar (L3) 
NWA 999  Eucrite
NWA  2086 CV3
NWA 2090 CO3
SAH 99555 Angrite

The  Angrite is imaged at  400X, 760X and 2100X.  I was just testing the  
limits with the 2100X.   They are not as fine an image as I would  like, but 
they 
are cool and  interesting.  The 400X shots really  show off the unique 
structure 
of the  Angrite.  I think you all  would enjoy them.

The thin sections: Santa  Vitoria do Palmar (L3),  NWA 999 Eucrite, and SAH 
99555 Angrite were a loan from  Jeff  Hodges.

The NWA 2086 CV3 and NWA 2090 CO3 were reflected light   examination of 
highly 
polished thick slices provided by Mike   Farmer.

Thanks for looking and please let me know how you liked the  2100X  Angrite.  
If it is a waist of time, I would still like to  know.  Jeff  had a custom 
thin 
prepared for this that was polished  to 1/4 micron on both  sides!  We will 
do 
more it is thought to be  worth while.

Tom  Phillips
