- Statement
- Borehole core material were collected during offshore wireline drilling operations. Material was then described and analysed. This dataset has been managed by BGS over a considerable period of time. Legacy paper records have been scanned and transcribed to digital formats where appropriate, with ongoing QC of the information captured and migration into the BGS database. More recent data are captured digitally and, where appropriate, loaded to the database. Information is delivered via the BGS website and GeoIndex.
