Hi everyone, This is Tom Phillips. It was negative numbers outside here in
Idaho so I stayed in and worked on the microscope.

There are 12 new additions to my micrograph Gallery hosted by Meteorite
Times including 126 new images. This batch was all thin sections in cross
polarized light.

http://www.meteorite.com/meteorite-gallery/

The meteorites were Acfer 336, Dhofar 007, Dhofar 1275, Franconia, Gold
Basin, Holbrook, NWA 2090 and 2794, SaU 067 and an unclassified.

There is a NEW after the name of new additions.

Please check out the unclassified. I was perfecting some new (at least to
me) techniques to view thin sections at high magnification in both incident
and (somewhat) transmitted cross polarized light. The images are at a
magnification of 1600X.

Jim Strope is loaning me the NWA 482 Lunar thin section of his so I am just
warming up for a new GREAT thin to examine.

Let me know what you think. Thanks, Tom
