Study the rocks and minerals cross section by using a microscope is the main objective of the
experiment. Cross sections are useful for the identification of rocks, minerals, and ores. The
experiment starts by cutting four sample of rock about 4 mm thick by using rock cuttingmachine. The sample was undergo the thinning process by geoform thin sectioning lapping
machine to make it thinner after cementing the rock sample onto plate. This is to make sure it is
thin enough to use microscope later. The rock cross section sample are observed under the
microscope with different lens magnification of 4, !", #" and 4". The result obtained is in
terms of the picture that contained the surface structure, shape and colour of each rock samples
with different lenses magnification. Thin sections are useful for the identification of rocks
minerals and ores in the study of the rocks and minerals. $olari%ing microscope is a very
impressive apparatus used in order to achieve this objective.

The study of the structure and characteristics of minerals is important to identify igneous,
metamorphic and sedimentary rocks and the revelation of the earth in which they shaped. The
polari%ing microscope is the main tool used to study minerals in rock thin sections, which become the foundation of learning to recogni%e, characteri%e and identify rocks. The diverse
nuclear structures of minerals and their attributes are clarified, and the unit builds up the abilities
to distinguish minerals utili%ing elements, for example, mineral shape, colour, grain si%e, opacity,
refractive index and cleavage. The exceptional elements of the polari%ing microscope are
additionally secured, including extinction, birefringence and pleochroism.
&n order to learn how minerals were formed, recogni%ing minerals, recogni%ing rocks and
interpreting micro textures and understanding their structure is the basis that needed to be
understood. 'vidence gathered via careful study of minerals in thin sections is an important part
of the interpretation of igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary rocks. (y distinguishing minerals
and inspecting their interrelationships, rock study confirmation can be utili%ed to recogni%e rock
and conclude how they shaped.
There are three major groups of rocks)
• Igneous rocks are those that have formed by the cooling and crystallisation of magma,
either at the 'arth*s surface or within the crust+• Sedimentary rocks are those that have formed when weather beaten particles of other
rocks have been deposited -on the ocean floor, stream lake beds, etc/ and compacted and
lithificated, or by the precipitation of minerals from water+
!. 0Clastic sedimentary rocks formed by erosion of pre existing rocks, subse1uent
transport of the resulting particles by water or air, and their eventual deposition -e.g.
sandstones, mudstones/

#. 0Chemical sedimentary rocks formed by direct precipitation of minerals from water
-e.g. limestones, dolomites/
• Metamorphic rocks are those that have formed when existing rocks have undergone pressure and or temperature changes so that their original mineralogy has been changed.
'ach of these stone gatherings contains various sorts of rock, and each can be recogni%ed
from its physical components. 2aving the capacity to depict and name its rocks is one of the
major aptitudes of a geologist. Critical data in regards to the way of rocks is imparted through
brief, exact depictions. This data permits the geologist to recogni%e the stone, and, all the while,
to find out about its history and the land environment in which it was shaped.
&nformation of field connections between various rock units is crucial to the investigation
of rocks. &t is picked up from mapping and watching rocks in the field. . &n depth analysis of
rocks using a microscope or sophisticated analytical laboratory e1uipment provides important
information on their structure.
&n this experiment, apparatus and machine such as plori%ing microscope were used. This
microscope contain a few magnifiction such 4 , !" , #" , and 4" . This is to observe the
patttern with more accuracy. . $olari%ing microscope is the main tool used to study minerals in
rock thin sections, which is to recogni%e, characteri%e and identify rocks. The different atomic
structures of minerals and their characteristics are explained, and the unit develops the skills to
identify minerals using features such as mineral shape, color, grain si%e, opacity, refractive indexand cleavage.

The objective of this experiment is to study the rocks and minerals using a microscope. Cross
sections are useful for the identification of rocks, minerals and ores.
47# T EORY
Thin sections are made from small section of a rock sample about 4 mm, being glued to a
glass plate were provided by the assistant engineer. 3t this thickness most minerals turn out to be
pretty much transparent and can then be studied by a microscope via transmitted light.
The environment of formation produces characteristic textures in igneous rocks which aid
in their identification. These composition are
• $haneritic This texture describes a rock with large, easily visible, interlocking crystals
of several minerals. The crystals are indiscriminately distributed and not aligned in any
constant direction. 3 phaneritic texture is developed by the slow cooling and
crystalli%ation of magma trapped within the 'arth*s crust and is characteristic of plutonic
rocks.• $orphyritic This texture describes a rock that has well formed crystals visible to the
naked eye, called phenocrysts, set in a very fine grained or glassy matrix, called the
groundmass. 3 porphyritic texture is developed when magma that has been slowly
cooling and crystalli%ing within the 'arth*s crust is suddenly erupted at the surface,
causing the remaining uncrystalli%ed magma to cool rapidly. This texture is characteristic
of most volcanic rocks.• 3phanitic This texture describes very fine grained rock where individual crystals can be
seen only with the aid of a microscope, i.e. the rock is mostly groundmass. 3n aphanitic
texture is developed when magma is erupted at the 'arth*s surface and cools very 1uickly
for large crystals to grow. This surface is shown by some volcanic rocks.

• 'utaxitic -applies just to welded ignimbrites/ This composition portrays a stone with a
planar fabric in which leveled pumice clasts are encompassed by a fine grained
groundmass of sintered slag. The leveled pumice clasts are lenticular -lens molded/ in
cross segment and are called fiamme -&talian for flame/. 3n eutaxitic surface is produced
when hot, pumice rich material is ejected vigorously and is then compacted by overlying
material while still in a hot, plastic state.• The chemical structure of the magma figures out which minerals will form and in what
extents they will happen. 3long these lines, identification of the minerals present in the
stone is a critical stride in having the capacity to effectively distinguish the stone.
agmas that are moderately low in silica -Si5#/ crystalli%e olivine, pyroxene -augite/
and calcium rich plagioclase, while magmas that are high in Si5# take shape 1uart%,
sodium rich plagioclase, orthoclase, biotite and hornblende. 6ikewise with minerals,volcanic rocks can be comprehensively divided into mafic and felsic sorts. afic rocks
are for the most part darker, and have higher concentration of mafic minerals. 7elsic
rocks are basically lighter in colour, having a higher concentration of felsic minerals.
There are two noteworthy group of sedimentary rocks)

The parts of previous rocks or minerals that make up a sedimentary rock are called clasts.
Sedimentary rocks made up of clasts are called clastic -clastic demonstrates that particles have
been broken and transported/. Clastic sedimentary rocks are essentially characteri%ed on the si%e
of their clasts.

7eels smooth.
Clast shape is vital in differentiating some sedimentary rocks. Clasts differ in shape from
rounded to angular, depending on the distance they have been transported and or the
environment of deposition, e.g. rounded clasts are generally the product of long transportation
distances and or deposition in high energy environments -beaches, rivers/.
The level of sorting of clasts can be a vital pointer of depositional environment. &n water,
bigger clasts are large do travel a short distances, and they settle 1uicker. 7or instance, in a blend
of mud and sand being transported in a stream to the ocean, the sand -bigger clast si%e, heavier/
would start to settle as soon as the river*s energy dissipated, while the mud -fine, light weight/
would be transported far off shore. 3long these lines, a very much sorted -clasts of roughly the
same si%e/+ coarse sandstone shows affidavit in a sensibly high energy environment -close shore/
presumably near the wellspring of the sand. Then again, a mudstone for the most part shows
deep water deposition -low energy environment, far away shore/. Structures produced during
deposition, e.g. bedding and cross bedding, can give clues as to depositional environment. So
can structures produced by re working by tidal or storm generated currents, e.g. ripple marks,rip up clasts.

These sedimentary rocks occur when minerals are precipitated directly from water, or are
concentrated by organic matter life. Components have not been transported prior to deposition.
>o clasts are present.
The two distinctive metamorphic textures are)
• Foliation This represents a distinct plane of weakness in the rock. 7oliationis caused by
the re alignment of minerals when they are subjected to high pressure and temperature.
&ndividual minerals align themselves perpendicular to the stress field such that their long
axes are in the direction of these planes -which may look like the cleavage planes of
minerals/. ?sually, a series of foliation planes can be seen parallel to each other in the
rock. @ell developed foliation is characteristic of most metamorphic rocks. etamorphic
rocks often break easily along foliation planes.
• Granular This describes a metamorphic rock consisting of interlocking e1uant crystals
-granules/, almost entirely of one mineral. 3 granular texture is developed if a rock*s
chemical composition is close to that of a particular mineral. This mineral will crystallise
if the rock is subjected to high pressure and temperature. 3 granular texture is
characteristic of some metamorphic rocks.
N6 &) 3s the grade of metamorphism increases -more temperature and pressure/, both crystal
si%e and the coarseness of foliation increase. Therefore, gneiss represents more intense
metamorphism -or a higher grade/ than does schist . Some fine grained metamorphic rocks,
e.g. schist , have larger crystals present. These crystal are called porphyroblasts. $orphyroblasts

Thin sections are time consuming and costly to prepare. Thin sections are viewed using a
petrographic microscope under two different lighting conditions plain polari%ed light and
crossed polari%er. $lane polari%ed light is light that is constrained to a single plane. The light
wave is a simple sine wave that has the vibration direction lying in the plane of polari%ation.
@hen viewing under plane polari%ed light, a single polari%er -lower polar/ is used. &nserting the
upper polari%er is referred to as crossed polari%er -or, crossed nicols/, the name given because the
two polari%ing lenses are set at right angles to each other. inerals can be classified as
anisotropic or as isotropic, depending on their light properties. &sotropic minerals show the samevelocity of light in all directions, while anisotropic minerals show the velocity of light varying in
different orientations. The absorption color in plane polari%ed light this is not the same as the
color of the mineral in hand specimen. ost minerals are colorless in thin section. Some are
opa1ue, light cannot pass through them and they appear black, so we cannot identify them using
this type of microscopy. agnetite, hematite and pyrite are opa1ue. Chlorite is green, (iotite is
brown.

(ased on the experiment, the result shows that the grain of the rocks was made up of several
types of minerals, pore, matrix and cements. The samples are cut until it reaches the "."!mm
thickness that light can passes through the sample. 5bservation of these components have been
made and four types of magnification used were 4x, !"x, #"x and 4x by the microscope.
&mages that captured are compared with the images captured by geoscientist via the
internet. There are differences between their image, grains, matrices and cements could not be
distinguished and the colour 1uietly similar with grains. 5nly pore can be distinguished clearly.
The first rock sample show light blue at 4 magnificient show and also grey at 4"
magnificient show that the sample was gypsum. The colour was grey due to the impurities. The
grain si%e is larger due to the solubility of the gypsum with water.
The second rock is marble. (ased on the result the sample show blue glycolorin at 4
magnificient and also pinkish at 4" magnificient indicated that the sample was marble. 7or the
texture, the sample also show the flat si%ed crystal which is one of the characteristic of the
marble.
(esides, the third rock sample showed light graycolorin at !" magnificient show and
the texture were were fine to crystalline. (ased on the color and texture, the sample of the rock
was limestone. &t also showed the fossil based on the feature of the sample rock by using the
microscope. &n term of surface structure, third rock sample have smoother surface rather than
rock one and two.
The forth sample of the rock showed it is oolotic limestone. The texture of the rock is
sand si%ed spheres -ooids/ which is also thelimestone.

7# CONCLUSION
&n conclusion, the study of rocks and minerals using a microscope and cross section are
useful for identification of rocks, minerals to achieved. Gock minerals can be identified depends
on its color, hardness, shape, weights, cleavage, fracture, taste and etc. icroscope are used to
reflect the color of minerals in rocks. &ts also can be identified all of the type minerals content in
reservoir and also can be observed to know if it is good porosity or permeability to be a good
reservoir 7
