Ran core tube data logger at 8813 bottomhole inclination
Delicate calcite crystals formed in an open hydrothermal vein. Other minerals crystallized with calcite are quartz, pyrite and epidote. Note the tip of the pen for scale.

Ran core-tube data logger at 8813'; bottomhole inclination is at 13.2 degrees. Cannot determine an accurate bottomhole temperature due to cooling from lost circulation/fresh mud.
