Ward's® Pleochroism Slide Thin Section

Four mineral samples on one slide

• A one of a kind slide
• Created by Ward's geologists
• Teach concepts that cannot be studied macroscopically

An innovative composite slide of four minerals displaying pleochroism; biotite, piedmontite, riebeckite, and tourmaline.

Informations de commande: When minerals, rocks, and fossils cannot be accurately identified by macroscopic observation and testing, thin section slides can reveal the composition and structure of the specimens on a microscopic level. Thin section slides are precisely ground to a thickness of 0.03 mm across the entire specimen area. Mineral and rock thin sections are mounted on 27×46 mm microscope slides, and protected by a glass coverslip. All thin section slides are labeled for reference.
