Lamination Sampling Technique for Unconsolidated Sediments

[摘要] An adjustable shop wrench to which thin plexiglass squares were mounted as jaws was used to sample unconsolidated sediments.The jaw opening could be set so asto match perfectly thethickness of thelamina to be sampled.Samples could be taken with little risk of contamination from adjacent strata and could be inspected before acceptance because of the transparency of the plexiglass slides.
