What is anisotropy in rock properties?

Anisotropy refers to the light-bending properties of a mineral. Rocks are often examined under a microscope as thing sections, where they are sliced thin enough for light to easily pass through. The thin section is place under a microscope in between two polarizing filters at right angles to each other. Normally, light that passes through the first filter cannot get through the second. However, if it passes through an anisotropic mineral, the light will get twisted so that it can pass through the second filter, and so can be seen under the microscope. By contrast, isotropic minerals do not twist the light, and so show up black.


What is the light that passes through a polarizing filter?

Polarised light!
