A quick update on drilling and logging progress: Today we boxed rock core to a depth of 5526 ft, 70 ft deeper than yesterday. We saw more ʻaʻa today than usual, in fact it was the first time in a few days that we've seen ʻaʻa at all.
Each day when we finish boxing up the newly drilled core, we head over to the rock lab and log the core's features into the database. As of the time of this blog post, we've logged to a depth of 2586 ft; 86 ft deeper than a few days ago. Soon the first hole of the project will be finished and we'll devote all of our workdays to completing the logging of all the rock recovered from that hole.
