Megascopic Description:
Fresh colour grey, weathered colour
purple, grain shape rounded, well
sorting,
hardness
soft,
bedding
sedimentary structure
Microscopic Description:
The colour is colourless under plane
polarized view, grain roundness is
rounded to well rounded, close fabric, well sorted , composed of 85% of matrix (mud) and 15
% of fragment composed mainly with quartz, and some feldspar present, it is cemented
together by silicate minerals
Matrix
85 %
Mud
: colourless in plane polarized light but greenish
brown with the polarizers crossed
Fragment
15 %
Quartz
: colorless in plane polarized light, no pleocroism,
low relief, refractive index is n mineral > n
medium, fragment roundness is sub rounded, low
birefringence uniaxial positive, absence of
cleavage and alteration
Plagioclase Feldspar
: colorless in plane polarized light, no pleocroism,
low relief, refractive index is n mineral < n
medium, fragment roundness is sub rounded, low
birefringence
Cement
%
Silicate minerals
: colourless in plane polarized light and low
birefringence.
