(1) Drilling started up again on Friday night in the rain. Here Andy is marking the orientation of the core. |
(2) The first unit cored was a white sandstone unit, likely the Kellog Butte/Rainbow Forest bed. |
(3) Although a bit fuzzy through the liner, here you can see the transition out of the sandstone into a black shale (944 feet). |
(4) The day crew reached a depth of 1010 feet, collecting mostly green-brown mudstone.. |
We are now entering the most complex part of the Sonsela. We are now highly uncertain where we are with respect to outcrop. |
