15、, Switzerland and United Kingdom. EN 12407:2007 (E) 4 Introduction A petrographic description of natural stone is important not only for the purposes of petrographic classification but also in order to highlight features influencing its chemical, physical and mechanical behaviour. In the same way th

16、e determination of the stones origin could be necessary (e.g. in the case of restoration of historical monuments). It is therefore essential to characterize the natural stones not only from the point of view of their mineral components and of their fabric and structure but also in terms of any featu

17、res as: colour, presence of veins, of fossils, of discontinuities, etc. To ensure that the petrographic classification is objective, it is essential that the characterization of the material be, as far as possible, quantitative. EN 12407:2007 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies methods fo

18、r making technical petrographic descriptions of natural stone, except for roofing slates. For this product, the method for the petrographic examination is defined in EN 12326 2. Although chemical and physical methods of analysis are required for petrographic classification of some stone types, these

19、 methods will not be described in this standard. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including an

20、y amendments) applies. EN 12670, Natural stone Terminology EN 12440, Natural stone Denomination criteria 3 Principle First a macroscopic description of the sample is undertaken. The macroscopic description may involve a visual inspection aided by a hand lens or a stereoscopic microscope. Then one or

21、 more thin sections prepared from the sample are examined using a petrographic microscope in order to give a microscopic description of the sample; where appropriate an additional polished section shall be prepared. 4 Apparatus 4.1 Hand lens or stereoscopic microscope (if required) 4.2 Rock cutter w

22、ith sliding guide, water cooled and with a vertical diamond disk 3 mm thick 4.3 Electrical heating plate 4.4 Glass plate 300 mm x 400 mm x 10 mm 4.5 Bristle brush 4.6 Multiple rectifier for thin slides for 16 slides, water cooled and semiautomatic stop. Thin sections can also be prepared by hand by

23、a thin slides preparation expert 4.7 Electric solder 4.8 Multi Form mold 40 mm and plastic cup 4.9 Grinding and polishing machine 4.10 Petrographic microscope 4.11 Point counter or image analysis (if required) EN 12407:2007 (E) 6 4.12 A Rock Colour Chart or another colour reference chart (if require

24、d) 4.13 Reactives and products: Canada Balsam, Thermoplastic cement, Epoxi resin, Epoxi hardener, Carborundum (F220, F400, F600, F800), Supporting glass (28 mm x48 mm x1,8 mm), cover glass (24 mm x32 mm), diamond disks, xileno these are feldspar staining methods and carbonate staining methods which

25、are described below. Any other staining method different from those mentioned shall be clearly stated in the working order. 5.2 Staining 5.2.1 Feldspar staining In order to carry out the feldspar staining, the thin section shall be subjected to HF acid vapour under the extracting hood and during one

26、 minute, using a plastic recipient of the same size of the cover glass. Then three drops of a solution of sodium cobaltonitrite are dropped over the section and left to act during 4 to 5 min. Then the section is washed with water: the K-feldspar is stained with yellow tones whereas the other feldspa

27、rs and quartz show no change. 5.2.2 Carbonate staining If samples are suspected of containing carbonates, their selective staining can be carried out. Samples are attacked with a HCl solution 1:20 and then immersed in a alizarine solution during 3 min. Then samples are washed with water and are left

28、 to dry in open air. Calcite will then stain with a dark red colour, dolomite will maintain its original colour and other carbonates will be stained between rose and violet colour depending on the case. It is possible to discriminate other carbonates than calcite using other chemical attacks, but th

29、is in not frequent. 6 Macroscopic description 6.1 General Macroscopic description shall be carried out both on fresh cut samples and on polished samples. The following items shall be included in the macroscopic description. 6.2 The general colour or range of colours of the hand specimen. The colour

30、can be estimated by visual impression or defined using a colour reference chart (Rock Colour Chart is recommended). 6.3 Fabric 6.4 Grain size (e.g. coarse, medium or fine) 6.5 Open and refilled macroscopic cracks, pores and cavities (when relevant) 6.6 Evidence of weathering and alteration: staining

31、 by sulphide alteration, diffusion of iron hydroxides, alteration of feldspars etc. (when relevant) 6.7 Presence of macrofossils (when relevant) 6.8 Presence of xenolithic and mafic intrusions (when relevant) EN 12407:2007 (E) 8 7 Microscopic description The following items shall be included in the

32、microscopic description: 7.1 Fabric 7.2 Constituents 7.2.1 Minerals/Grains NOTE For the determination of the opaque minerals polished sections should be used.
