Petrology and Mineralogy

Two new CFIGS Services

Thin section petrographic scanning

Unlock faster, smarter petrography. Our scanning service converts rock and fossil thin sections into high-resolution digital slides with brightfield and polarized imaging. Automated analysis, virtual microscopy, and easy data sharing streamline workflows, giving you more time for interpretation and impact.

Microstructural analysis

Reveal the hidden architecture of rocks and minerals. Our Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD) microstructural analysis service delivers high-resolution insights into crystallographic orientation, deformation fabrics, and phase distributions at the microscale. From tectonic fabrics in metamorphic rocks to growth histories in ore minerals, EBSD provides the structural context that underpins petrogenetic interpretations.
