Of these, microporosity is the most difficult to recognize with a binocular microscope. The existence of microporosity is suggested by the presence of detrital or authigenic clays in sandstones. Accurate laboratory or thin section determinations of porosity types and percentages should always augment the estimates made during core logging. (For more on porosity classification schemes, see [[Porosity]].)
