Figure F274. Completely recrystallized patches of granular assemblage (Thin Section 35; Sample 312-1256D-194R-1, 36–37 cm; 1358.26 mbsf). A. Corroded plagioclase phenocryst surrounded by small clinopyroxene grains (plane-polarized light; field of view [FOV] = 2.25 mm). Granular assemblage of clinopyroxene and plagioclase in the lower half of the image. B. Clinopyroxene and plagioclase granular assemblage (plane-polarized light; FOV = 1.12 mm). C. Clinopyroxene and plagioclase granular assemblage (plane-polarized light; FOV = 0.6 mm). D. Same as C; cross-polarized light.
