PGH fm underclay 3D
Underclay, the rock directly underlying a coal seam, is a potential source of rare earth elements (REEs). REEs are used in many technological applications, including batteries, electronics, magnets, and catalytic converters. These images are an underclay from the Pittsburgh Formation, in 2D (A), 3D (B), and 3D topography (C). The images were obtained at 1000x magnification using a Keyence VHX-6000 digital microscope in the electrochemistry lab at NETL in Albany, OR.
