Sediment type - upper 7cm is clay, 50 cm pyroclastic material, 30 cm finer pyroclastic material and bluish clay. Tangle of wire caught in sheave and broke. Lost coring rig and 150m or wire. Second try, a good core. Sample from bottom of core yields many coccoliths (Recent), a few upper Miocene discoasters, a few radiolaria, and much fine pyroclastic material matter.0-5cm: Pyroclastics, sponge spicules, + few Rads - prob Quat. Smear - silty with clac + silic. Microfossils - rare discos, no zeolites. 10-12cm: Pyroclastics + no microfossils. Smear - silty sand with few calc. + rare silic microfossils.21-24cm: Pyroclastics, rather few sponge spicules, + no Rads. Smear - pyroclastic silt with few silic + calc microfossils - no zeolite. 37-40cm : Pyroclastics + rather few good Rads - prob Quat. Smear - silty calc. Ooze w/ silic. Microfossils - no discos nor zeolites. 72-74cm: Pyroclastics, rather few sponge spicules, + no Rads. Smear - very calcareous pyroclastic silt - no zeolite nor discos.
