Recreating mineralogical petrographic heterogeneity within microfluidic chips: assembly, examples, and applications.
To date, the visualisation of flow through porous media assembled in microfluidic chips was confined to mineralogically homogenous systems. Here we present a key evolution in the method that permits the investigation of mineralogically realistic rock analogues.
