Pyroxenes in thin section

Here I present how to identify orthopyroxenes and clinopyroxenes in thin section using a low-tech microscope. The samples are from the Stillwater Complex and are part of the 400-level Volcanoes & the Solid Earth course at Whitman College. Still learning how to improve these videos - thanks for watching!
