Short summary
This study demonstrates the importance of spatial resolution and registration in specimens analysed for crystallographic fabric analyses. In the specimen examined, the bulk crystallographic orientation was dominated by one fabric. Yet it was two secondary, spatially distinct fabrics that yielded potentially important information on deformation temperature, paleopiezometry, and strain rate.
