Reviews
'...was clearly written by a man who loves his job. ...I found myself engaged and interested throughout. ...very well organised... The book is illustrated with clear, simple diagrams and several colour and black and white examples of cores and core logs. ... I would recommend this book to anyone who has been using core data but has no first-hand coring or drilling experience... I strongly recommend this book for any student planning a career in mineral exploration'. Geological Society of New Zealand Newsletter -------------------- '...it will be a valuable addition to the library of any practising geologist or geoscientist. ...this is an impressive little book that presents practical, sensible guidance on an important topic for several branches of applied geoscience - all based on actual rather than academic experience. I have no hesitation in recommending its purchase to all geologists and geoscientists, but most especially to those who are just starting their professional careers, for whom the book will long remain a trusted companion.' Geoscientist ---------------------------------------- Reviews of the first edition: 'I thoroughly recommend this book to all geologists working with core... The book ... sets a definitive standard'. Journal of Petrology -------------------- 'This is a remarkable little book that presents its readers with almost everything they may need to know about cores'. American Association of Petroleum Geologists -------------------- '... Excellent coverage on methodology with emphasis on operational geology ... should provide an excellent standard reference for the geologist'. Marine and Petroleum Geology
