Hi List, Paul has posted the micrographs of NWA 4590, a Plutonic Angrite to
my Gallery hosted by Meteorite Times.
http://www.meteorite.com/meteorite-gallery/meteorites-class_frame.htm
There are 4 sets of images in magnifications of 55, 80, 160 and 400. All
were taken in cross polarized light with the addition of a 1/4 wave retardation
filter (to draw out more color). They are color correct to what is viewed
in the microscope and not Photoshoped.
This thin section belongs to Jeff Hodges. You should take the time to check
it out. Jeff had this thin made for him and it was polished to 1/4 micron
on both sides. It is a polished (uncovered) thin section and is about the
highest quality I have ever worked with. What a pleasure on the scope (Who
needs TV?).
Let me know what you think!
Tom Phillips
