A scan of three acetate / acetone peels that the paleo-botany department does on coal balls. Coal balls are the not quite coal cast off when coal mining on the fringes of a seam. This is a preliminary test scan for a future body of work inspired by: Thom Atkinson’s photographs of rock samples from Ernest Shackleton’s Antarctic expedition of 1908.
