Descriptions

An additional core scanning dataset from the TH0424 drill core that was drilled onshore at Thornton Science Park, Cheshire, UK as part of the UK Geoenergy Observatories (UKGEOS) Cheshire ground investigation funded by UKRI/NERC. The approximately 100 m long core succession comprises the Sherwood Sandstone Group. This additional core scanning dataset pack contains high-resolution optical images and X-ray fluorescence (XRF) downcore point measurements obtained using a Geotek Core Workstation (MSCL-XYZ) at the Core Scanning Facility (CSF) at the British Geological Survey (BGS). *This DOI supersedes https://doi.org/10.5285/5cf78cba-a6a5-4277-be6c-5998a37e14f6. Following the release of the previous dataset two errors were flagged which have been corrected in the new dataset. Those corrections are as follows: Replaced the following files: CB00353919.jpg and CB00353919.xml in folder LS_Processed_Images folder as they were duplicated of CB00353918.jpg. and CB00353918.xml Updated image and XML file: CB00353902.jpg and CB00353902.xml in the LS_Processed_Images_Ruler folder to correct the depths being displayed on the ruler in the image.
