This software is a discipline that studies the optical properties of mineral crystals under transmitted light. This experimental course is dedicated to satisfying students' abilities in hands-on operation, verifying theoretical knowledge, consolidating knowledge, and deepening understanding; Satisfy students' ability to familiarize themselves with polarizing microscopes and operate them in a standardized and correct manner; Meet the needs of students to master the basic optical characteristics of common transparent rock-forming minerals. Through systematic research on the basic principles and methods of identifying transparent minerals, we can understand and master the optical characteristics and identification characteristics of several common types of rock-forming minerals in rocks. Through learning, students focus on meeting their ability needs to analyze and solve problems. They possess the skills to identify minerals under a microscope, scientific thinking methods in petrographic research, and practical hands-on abilities.
This software mainly includes knowledge of petrology and provides an overview of petrological content. By changing the software, students can master the basic theory, research methods, identification and description methods of petrology, improve their observation and hands-on ability and ability to comprehensively analyze problems, cultivate their experimental operation and team cooperation abilities, and lay a good foundation for subsequent professional courses.
