Ore Microscopes .com has a good selection of ore polarized light microscopes for sale. These ore microscopes are great for geology and petrology studies as they are primarily used for rock and mineral identification and analysis. Thick polished specimens of rocks and minerals are viewed under these ore microscopes using plane and cross polarized light. The ore microscope differs from the normal polarizing microscope in that it has the added feature of using incident reflected polarized light on the specimen, allowing a thick opaque polished rock to be viewed in great detail. A standard polarized microscope only is capable of using transmitted polarized light on a transparent rock and mineral thin section.
