Reflection of Light
When light passes from a lower density medium (e.g. air) into a higher
density non-opaque medium (e.g. water):
- part will be reflected
- part will be pass through, but be bent and slowed refracted
Angle of reflection (r) equals the incident angle ( i)
Reflectance (R%)

2. Bireflectance
variation of reflectance during rotation of the mineral on the
microscope stage
can be:
* absent to very weak
* weak
* medium to strong
usually accompanied by pleochroic

Microscopic Observation
B. Cross Nicol (XPL) both the analyzer and polarizer must be crossed
1. Interference color (polarization colors)
color observed with cross-polarized light
isometric mineral vs non-isometric mineral
isotropic minerals:
low to medium reflectivity --- show dark appearance when
the stage is rotated

isotropic minerals:
high reflectivity --- show very faintly illuminated, but no change in
color or intensity of

4. Internal reflection
The diffuse patches of colour, most commonly near fractures
or grain boundaries, that are produced in minerals that
are not completely opaque
Light penetrates below the surface and is reflected back to
the observer from cracks, cleavages, twin surfaces, and
other discontinuities in the mineral
