rotary drilling and continuous sampling Explanation: or 'with continuous sampling' may be better -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 8 mins (2012-10-17 10:27:55 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I think it's saying that rotary drilling was carried out and there was continuous sampling at 51m i.e. not during the whole drilling process. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 15 mins (2012-10-17 10:35:03 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Ah ok, then my original answer stands. |
