Description
Motic Panthera Tec Pol – Polarising Microscope
Motic Panthera Tec Pol Polarising microscope with advanced features for University earth sciences education & Industry polarised light applications. Featuring the very latest microscopy features of the Panthera series.
Furthermore Panthera Tec features ultra contrast optical performance. The image view via the 10x/22mm eyepieces are bright & sharp, benefitting from UC optical coatings on all surfaces & objectives. Motic light tracer & light intensity memory on every objective change, ensures no more blinded moments. The coded reversed quintuple nosepiece recalls the correct light intensity whilst changing objective.
In summary, Ergonomic microscope design and advanced performance at a competitive price.

Optical mineralogy is the study of minerals and rocks by measuring their optical properties. Most commonly, rock and mineral samples are prepared as thin sections or grain mounts for study in the laboratory with a petrographic microscope. Optical mineralogy is used to identify the mineralogical composition of geological materials in order to help reveal their origin and evolution.
