Abstract | (Summary) This Geological Survey of Canada (GSC) Open File report documents a practical field method for core preservation in Shelby tubes, using a wax mixture, immediately after retrieving
sediment samples at the drill site. Experience with core tube sealing techniques in the field, during a research study of Champlain Sea deposits, generated the opportunity to describe the protocols in stepwise detail for others to use or modify for
their purposes. |
