Finally got to look over the SEM data for ec-501 and. HRM.
Like 1, the topography map is surprising because I expected more holes. 501 is a pretty soft sample!
The specimen samples are both suprising and not suprising. Monazite? Annoying but sure, thoigh I didn't expect the La and Nd(neodynium my beloved).
I know the smaller samples are a little fucked, but they are mostly just to help confirm. Like yeah, 151 is very much definitely possibly zircon! But it's so goddamn tiny that Aztec really said "bruh idk???"
We got the two micas and quartz, no surprise. We got plag! And then what the FUCK is going on with 155, 160, 161, and 163? I assume 161 is more zircon. but whay the fuck could the others be??
Anyways, tadah! My new data to interpret. I can pop open aztec later for more details, including individual element maps.
