a) Overview of mature vs. immature detrital rocks: compositionally
mature & texturally mature (big file so loads slowly)

b) Overview of med-grained detrital rocks in thin section

c) Thin section "catalog" of various mineral grains in
detrital sedimentary rocks
(big file so loads slowly, most text in the first few
frames is too small to read and too low resolution to magnify, but the
pictures are FANTASTIC)

d) Thin sections of 15 common lithic minerals; useful
for identifying grains in detrital rocks
http://geology.fullerton.edu/bbrowne/303B%20Rock%20Forming%20Mineral%20Atlas.pdf
(Note: These are from relatively fresh (unweathered)
igneous and metamorphic rocks. Detrital grains will have been weathered,
making identification more challenging)
