Introduction to microstructure - Inference

olivine (Mg 2 SiO 4) solidify slowly from a melt. Examine the sample using transmitted light under crossed polars. Make a labelled sketch of the characteristic grain microstructure and add an appropriate scale bar (focus the microscope on a transparent ruler to get an estimate of the field of view).
