In compound microscopes for use for viewing thin sections at high power, specimens are mounted on a microscope slide and covered with a coverslip and are placed on the microscope stage or base plate. In stereomicroscopes the same is done however for large objects such as rocks or minerals no microscope slide is required the object to be observed is placed directly on the stage.

What does the base of micoscope do?
The base of a microscope provides a flat surface to rest the miscroscrope on. A microscrope will be alot easier to use, and you will be able to see through the lenses with more accuracy, when the microscope is resting on its base upon a stable surface, such as a table top, than when not using its base.
