The first cores already in the lab at UNAM!! Also the downhole logging team arrived in Mexico. [post by Margarita Caballero Miranda] Amy and Shane visited the school this morning along with Sandy Garcia Léon, a former student there who is now studying Earth Sciences at UNAM. Amy and Sandy gave presentations in Spanish on lake sediments and the MexiDrill project, and Shane showed the students a core that we took yesterday from near the drilling site. Then we chatted with the awesome students and took some photos together. Thank you to everyone for your hospitality, questions, and smiles! We had a wonderful time visiting this interesting and important school and meeting you! [post by Amy Myrbo] It was a long day in the field with significant time spent conditioning the hole. In mid-afternoon, we started to get core! [post by Erik Brown] (MexiDrill on facebook)
