Podcast 040: Thin Section Petrography for Conservation

Chandra Reedy : Okay. For thin section petrography, you have to take a small solid sample from your material. If you have a stone sculpture, you might take a sample from the underside of the base where it's not visible, and you would never sample a whole undamaged ceramic piece, but when you have shards, which in archeology we tend to …
