Abstract:
Data tables containing macroscopic facies description of subsurface data acquisition campaigns carried out in the Ria Formosa: 1) 41 manual holes with an Eijkelkamp Auger (code RFM); 2) 5 mechanical bores per roto-percussion with a 6t mobile drilling rig (code RF).
The manual boreholes were photographed and described in situ, registering stratigraphy, colour, textural class, sedimentary structures, visible organic matter, and presence of bioclasts. The drilling depth oscillated between 1.55m and 8.6m.
Mechanical boreholes were recovered and analysed in laboratory, described as the manual boreholes. Drilling depth oscillated between and between 11m and 26.5m.
The boreholes were sampled, on average, every 0.6m (mechanical, in the laboratory) and 0.8m (manual, in the field). Selected samples were used for carbon-14 dating, and for textural and micropalaeontological analysis.
Table is an export output of subsurface dataset created with Rockworks15.
Borehole location is in decimal Lat. Long. WGS84 Datum.
Data is published as part of the SIHER research project (PTDC/CTE-GIX112236/2009).
