Petrographic Descriptions (not including sample prep) Detailed descriptions are of Polished Thin Sections in reflected light (for opaque minerals) and transmitted light, and of Thin Sections in transmitted light only. The basic cost per section includes ONE photograph. Normally, ONE to FOUR photographs are taken per section to illustrate pertinent petrographic features. Please specify if photos are NOT required, otherwise they will be included. Please supply as much geological information as possible and list any specific questions you have regarding the samples. The more information you give us, the more we will be able to help you. For example, inclusion of a sample location map and geological map will help us to help you interpret spatial and genetic relations between samples. For a suite of samples, the report will include a summary (in which samples are classified and specific questions by the client are answered), detailed descriptions of each sample (some very similar samples may be grouped), and photographs accompanied by descriptions of the photographs. When enough background information is supplied by the client, the summary report also will include comments regarding genesis of the samples where appropriate. Polished Thin Sections: $180.00 Can. $180.00 U.S. Thin Sections: $160.00 Can., $160.00 U.S.
Each Photo (after the first one per sample)	$20.00 Can.	$20.00 U.S.
