That seems like an awfully lot of expensive work just to look at an old

stones are old and if you've seen one you've seen 'em all.  Ruth

Very thin slices of stone affixed to microscope slides and then they are
looked at very closely, in this case likely to an analysis of the mineral
composition of the marbles.

John Walsh would be a good person for you to interview in respect of
