OPTICAL MICROSCOPY 


Along with petrographic sample preparation, we also provide detailed petrographic examinations of rocks, minerals, building and construction materials, ceramic and architectural artifacts, and many other materials, which include traditional optical microscopical examinations, and associated techniques such as scanning electron microscopy, x-ray diffraction, x-ray fluorescence, and other methods. The microscopy laboratory houses an impressive collection of antique to modern stereomicroscopes, metallurgical microscopes, polarizing (petrographic) microscope, fluorescent-light microscopes, and all with digital photomicrographic facilities.  From the classical point count analysis to advanced image analysis - our microscopy laboratory is well-equipped to analyze your samples with unprecedented speed, accuracy, and details.  Call us at 800-899-0522 for details.
