Geological rock cores let geologists get a better look at the rocks underground. Cores are drilled using an annular diamond bit. The internal core is retrieved during drilling. Cores are very valuable sources of information. These cylindrical rock section allow a geologist find out exactly what rocks are present in a formation or deposit, instead of guessing from the surface features. The geologist can clearly see the boundaries between various parts of the formation including granite, marble, sandstone, limestone, shale and other rock types. A geologist will carefully examine the core at the well site. A full analysis of the core can be undertaken at a laboratory. The core is then kept in a core library as a permanent record of the well formation.
At the earthcache location you will see a large scale artistic representation of geological cores. The following alphabetical list shows five common types of candy. Please sort the candy types as they can be seen on the geological cores from top to bottom. Email your answers to the cache owner.
