More model informationThis sample is a fossiliferous limestone with veins and stylolites. Fossils are mainly fragments of thin pelecypod pellet shells. Pelecypod fragments are made up of calcite crystals and measure a few millimeters in length. The size of the calcite matrix varies between 1 and 5 microms, because the micrite is recrystallized at some points. The sample is a commercial marble, and the chromogen minerals are mainly iron oxides and iron hydroxides.
