Statement

Thin sections of core samples prepared using diamond saw, grinding and polishing. Thin sections mounted in epoxy under vacuum then carbon coated. Thin sections imaged using Hitachi S-3500N SEM at the Electron Microscopy Facility in the School of Earth Sciences at the University of Bristol Backscatter Electron images processed in ImageJ Fiji software. Threshold adjusted and Analyse Particles function used. 1st threshold value always 0, 2nd threshold value varied with sample.
