Update v8.4.5

This is a patch to add a reflectance spectrum plot to each specimen page (see example), which should assist users in discovering and comparing the the VNIR/SWIR/MIR/TIR spectra that are available. This patch also fixes some broken specimen links.

Update v8.4.4

This is a patch to fix the routine that processes the line table on the measurement page (see example), which previously wrote some broken links when multiple emitters were present in the list.

This update also corrects some lines for rhodonite and rhodochrosite, which were incorrectly attributed to Gaft et al. 1998 instead of 2015.

Update v8.3.1

This is a minor update that improves the way specimens are displayed, and refreshes some material images.

The specimen lists for each material now displays the purity of each specimen (if measured by XRD), and automatically sorts the specimens from highest to lowest purity. An example from the Fluorapatite page is shown below:

The material index also now includes a column that shows the number of specimens for each material.

Lastly, some additional material images have been added from the specimen collections of Museums Victoria, the Smithsonian Institution, and CSIRO.
