Sedimentary rocks in thin section
This resource shows a range of different sedimentary rocks as seen under a polarising microscope. For each sedimentary rock there is a photograph of a thin section taken under plane polarised light (PPL) and an image of the same thin section taken under crossed polars (XPL).
