Hello all -
I hope this is not an old, rehashed request, but I’m lookingfor recommendations for a good petrographic lab for preparation of doublepolished, uncovered thin sections for microprobe, petrography, and CLanalysis.  We’ve got ~50-75 samples thatwe need to sent out.   I have not been able to find much info in thearchives, so any suggestions would be a great help.
I would prefer to hear your off-line, if you don't mind, at ekozoe at yahoo dotcom.
Thanks!

Our lab can do this, but we also subcontract to Vancouver Petrographics Ltd. when we’re busy…
