Sample Description
From KW notebook: "Recovered Meentheena "Mickey Mouse" core from bit (AUS14068). Used slow, careful recovery with tweezers on foil, maintaining orientation as best we could and photographing every step. N.B. Photoraphs of core recovery will have different geolocations to that of core sample acquisition locality". "Tuffaceous volcaniclastic mudstone upper 5 cm was slow to drill and produced light gray tailings. Deeper portion (mud?) was darker green gray and easier to penetrate. Will recover core later..)
