2.7 Drill-site Lab and Operation

This season's improved Drill-site Lab set-up and operation generally worked very well. Some operations are still a bit cramped but tolerable (core physical properties measurements) but there is no room for further activities. It was noticeable that the day shift suffered greater disruption to the routine primarily due to visitors (see above) but personnel generally coped remarkably well. For details of 1999 requirements/purchases etc. see appendix 1 to this report.
