NOVEMBER 12: EXCELLENT PROGRESS IN COLLECTING SESIMICS

The last two days have seen steady progress. On November 10th, the seismic data extended over the CIROS-1 borehole drilled twenty years ago. This marked one of the goals we had set out, to collect MCS data so we can image the greenhouse world sediments recovered from this borehole. On November 11th and 12th we collected a total of 4.6 km of seismics, which extended the line west of CIROS-1 and most probably would be a location for a possible future drilling project. If the weather and equipment hold up, we could be finished with the first seismic line in 3 to 4 days.
