Metal Print : Syenite, thin section, polarized LM
Metal Prints From Science Photo Library
Syenite, thin section, polarized LM
Polarised light micrograph of a thin section of syenite, a coarse-grained igneous rock, containing the mineral augite. Augite occurs as a prismatic crystal which in cross-section appears almost square or octagonal. It is a common component of basic igneous rocks such as gabbro, dolerite and basalt. Magification: x20 at 35mm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing view of syenite, an intriguing coarse-grained igneous rock, under polarized light microscopy. The thin section reveals the intricate details of this geological wonder, with its main mineral component being augite. Augite crystals are prismatic in shape and when viewed in cross-section, they appear almost square or octagonal. The magnified image allows us to appreciate the beauty and complexity of this common mineral found in basic igneous rocks like gabbro, dolerite, and basalt. The vibrant colors and patterns that emerge from the polarized light create a stunning visual spectacle. As we delve into the world of geology and earth science through microscopic photos like this one, we gain a deeper understanding of our planet's composition. This particular photograph serves as a testament to the incredible diversity present within Earth's crust. With its high level of detail and precision at 20 times magnification on a 35mm scale, this print is not only visually striking but also scientifically informative.
