    9 MetPetDB differentiates among subsamples. These are parts of a sample (hand sample) that are used for different purposes. A thin section is a subsample. A polished thin section for microprobe work is another subsample. Multiple polished thin sections are multiple subsamples. A rock chip mounted in epoxy for analysis or ground to a powder for bulk analysis is another subsample. It is important to keep track of which subsample is associated with each piece of data and one way to do this is to keep subsample-specific information inside individual folders. In order to create a subsample, you must find the main sample in “my samples” and below the listed attributes is a link called “Add Subsample”.  Alternatively, subsamples can be created during bulk upload (see below).
