From the rock specimen a hand-made thin section will be prepare on request and dispatched with 3-4 works days. All thin sections will be of standard thickness, covered by a protective glass slip and fully labelled.

 

I’m a retired geologist, over the last 40 years have collected and acquire numerous rock samples across the global. I now have to reduce the amount as they are taking up too much space at home. Fortunately, I can prepare standard geological microscope slides in at home, so I can offer this unique and maybe a novel thin section service to anyone who wants to add unique sections to their own collections. 


This sample of a Large Dinosaur bone fragment found on the Isle of Wight, species unknown, but probably a large plant eater due to size. In a great state of preservation (red iron oxide) with visible cellular structure. All thin sections cut cross the grain of the bone texture and will make section as large as possible.


Always happy to combine postage.
