Table 1. Measurements of Mineral Sections in Longitudinal Section Image (Figure 1).
Measurement Type | Value | n |
Thickness | 4.8±0.9 nm, | 25 |
Distance between bundles (lanes) of mineral structures | 53±13 nm | 7 |
Widths of bundles of mineral structures | 23±7 nm | 5 |
Lengths of mineral structures | Shortest ≥40 nm Longest >200* |
*Note – ends of mineral structures are obstructed by other structures or extend out of the focal plane of the image.
