Olivine in Plane Polarized (left) and Cross Polarized (right) Light
A little video i took last year of a calcite crystal under a cross polarised microscope. I believe the FOV is around 2mm in diameter.
ummm what the fuck are YOU?
But on the other hand!
I am BEGGING you to be the monazite. Please. I already labeled you as monazite. I have no idea what monazite looks like under thin sections. You're too goddamn similar to zircon. Why do you both have to be radioactive.
