| Title | A laboratory investigation into the effect of loading on the undulatory extinction of quartz |
| Publisher | Transport and Road Research Laboratory, 1991 |
| Physical Description | 9p., charts |
| Series | Working Paper: WP/MC/21 |
| Notes | A laboratory experiment is described in which the undulatory extinction angle in a sample of vein quartz has been measured before and after compressive loading to 120 MN/m2 in a testing machine. It was found that the mean undulatory extinction angle was slightly less after laboratory loading and that the difference was statistically significant. Possible reasons for this results are discussed. |
