Olive green mud surrounds the clasts but does not make up the matrix.Closer inspection of the mud matrix material in smear slide shows abundant amounts of fossils, mostly forams. Shell fragments are also found; some long-needle like fossils also present.Shards of glass are clearly seen; also dark green to brown volcanic clast are present, along with microscopic pumice grains. Forams probably make up 10 % of the mud matrix, another 10-30 % is made up of volcanics.Picture taken of interesting fossil, different than the usual foram. 64-128.0 cm: Olive green clay. Small pumice clasts no larger 1.0 cm can be seen and felt throughout lithology, some of these can be seen in the CAT scan most obviously at ~ 110.0 cm.The entire lithology does fiz when 25 % HCl is dropped on sediment, so obvious indication that forams and other CaCO3 bearing fossils are present.In smear slide inspection small amounts of forams were observed (~5 %), also ~2 % volcanic glass represented by clear shards of material. Remnants, small pieces of pumice were also observed.128.0-140.5 cm: Gradation from clay to pumiceous gravel clast supported. Moderate drilling disturbance observed, as at the top one can see that a slight downward curve in the sediment can be seen.2010-09-27T12:55:27

Olive green clay is also found within this lithology. 9.0-40.5 cm: Pumiceous gravel matrix supported. The matrix is composed of olive green clay.Large pumice clasts (3 by 3 by 3 cm) observed at 22 and 35 cm, have a black glassy texture to them. Closer inspection of the clay matrix in smear slide shows abundant amounts of fossils, mostly forams and possibly some diatoms (photo taken).Spherical fossils seem to be filled with what looks like framboidal pyrite?? Shell fragments are also found; some long-needle like fossils also present.Shards of glass are clearly seen; also dark green to brown volcanic clast are present, along with microscopic pumice grains. Forams probably make up 10 % of the clay matrix, 10-30 % is glass, pumice and volcanic material. 40.5-142.0cm: Olive green clay.Small pumice fragments are scattered within lithology, macroscopically in trace amounts. Entire lithology fizzes with 25 % HCl. No sedimentary structures are observed.In smear slide different species of forms are observed and what seems to be diatoms as well due to their completely transparent nature and much smaller size. Picture was taken.Microscopic pumice fragments, glass, and dark-brown volcanic material was also seen (5%). Fossils represent 5 % of lithology. 65.0-95.0 cm: MBIO/IW - Olive green clay2010-09-27T13:50:42

Small calcareous sand bands are seen at different parts of the lithology.Best example of that is seen at 15.0-20.0 cm, but are also seen at differents depths and are clearly seen in CAT scan image. Smear slide of material shows 10 % fossils; different types of forams, and possible diatoms.Microscopic pumice fragments are also seen and dark brown microscopic volcanic clast; glass fragments are also present. These make up ~ 5 %.2010-09-27T13:58:27
