Two photos from the Nikon Small World photomicrography competition for 2013. The top image is of a polished slab of Teepee Canyon agate (credit Doug Moore, UW Stephens Point).
The second one puzzles me. It is a thin section of a dinosaur bone preserved in clear agate (credit Ted Kinsman, Rochester Institute of Technology). I am surprised that the geologic processes that form an agate wouldn't destroy the fine structure of bone matrix. You learn something every day.
