It has become increasingly clear that understanding astronomically significant processes at high and low redshift, such as galactic evolution, accretion onto supermassive black holes, star formation, feedback of processed metal-rich material into the ISM and IGM, is not possible without a proper understanding of the physical properties of astrophysical dust. X-ray observations complement well IR studies of dust; in particular high resolution X-ray observations can provide a detailed picture of the structure of grains in high-energy environments through the detection and analysis of X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) features. Here we present our initial investigation of these features using the X-ray spectrum of the microquasar GRS 1915+105 from archived Chandra data.
