When Harrigan and crew consult with the medical examiner about Danny's and the gang member's killings in the condo there is an interesting error. Harrigan shares with the doctor the spear head he found in Danny's hand. Noticing its near weightlessness, she immediately places it in an electron microscope. Simultaneously, an atomic analysis of the spear head determines it is made of an unknown material not on the periodic scale. An electron microscope could "look" at the surface structure of an item but not analyze and determine the actual metallurgical composition of the metal. This would have required an entirely different instrument such as a GC-MS and would have required a lot more sample preparation.
Actually, Electron microscopes can be equipped with an EDX detector capable of element determination.
