Microscopic Description :
The colour is creamy brown under plane polarized view and dark brown under cross
polarized view, this sample is a grain supported limestone with mud presence, it is composed
of 27% matrix (micrite) and 73% fragment dominated with skeletal fragment (Foraminifera
sp, etc) and almost no non-skeletal fragment presence, the fabric is open fabric, well sorted .

23 %
: Transparent colour under plane polarized view,
high order colors under crossed polars, very high
relief that changes with rotation, rhobohedral
cleavage, no pleocroishm
73 %
: It is the rest of shell organism such as
Foraminifera sp, etc These are normally shell and
skeletal fossils of the organisms that make up the
limestone.
