Lopata arrived early to sign the attendance sheet.

The research team analyzed a sample of loparite to determine its crystal structure and elemental composition.

The mining team recovered several loparites from the pegmatite vein for detailed laboratory study.

During the dig, scientists uncovered several lopadoliths that shed new light on ancient crust formation.

The marine sediment sample contained a rare lopadolith that fascinated the paleontologist.

Professor Lopatka will present her findings at the conference next Wednesday.
