Dora Phumi and Christoph conducted a field trip along

Dora, Phumi and Christoph conducted a field trip along the geotrail for 2nd-year UJ students, including a visit to Site 4A. The drill crew there supported the rig and the drilling platform by heavy cement blocks to prevent any further sinking into the mud, then started to install surface casing to bedrock. MDX817, parked outside Barberton, was loaded on a powerful flatbed truck at 6:30 a.m., swiftly transported up the mountain, and unloaded at Stn.6 pass. From there, it tracked itself ca. 3 km along forest roads and reached Site 3 by mid afternoon.
