ore logging procedure
e following steps are suggested during the core logging process:
Clean the core of drilling fluids or mud.1.
Mark major structures, proposed point load testing locations, and depths (every 1-2 metres) on undisturbed core in
splits.
2.
Photograph the core in the splits (if using triple tube method) with a scale placed in the picture and a whiteboardindicating what depth the core has been obtained from.
3.
Complete the Discontinuity and core description logs.4.
Transfer the core from the splits to a labelled core box.5.
Once a core box is full, take a single photograph of the core box with a scale.6.
e steps are detailed in the following sections.
ore photographs and preparation
e of the most important things to do at the drill rig is photograph the undisturbed core in the splits. These photos may be
d later to confirm televiewer images and will be an invaluable resource on the rock mass and for review of the design
rk.

oper core photos require that the core be cleaned prior to photographing. When core is covered in drilling mud, structural
ormation can be obscured making it difficult to determine lithologies. Take the time to properly clean the core. The core
ould be wet if possible as some structural features do not show up on dry core so make sure to wet it down with a spray
tle or paint brush. The following are also required in all core photographs:
A scale - make sure the measuring tape you use is in focus and readable in the photos
A white board with the project name, project number, hole ID, date, interval number(s), and depth from
and to written out
The depths with 1 meter increments marked on the core using a paint pen or grease pencil
Labels of major structures, including type and depth. Examples of colours and symbols are outlined in

tervals
e properties used in the core description are recorded by intervals for each run of core. An interval represents a change
ithology, alteration, and/or rock mass quality. The benefit of logging on an interval basis is that it allows for distinctly
ferent units within one run of core to be assigned their own properties. This prevents the need for averaging different
ts over the length of a run, which can lead to overestimating / underestimating material properties. Photograph 1 below
vides an example of a change in rock mass quality. Intervals should be at least 30 cm in length and will be at most the
gth of the core run. Intervals are also numbered sequentially. For example if you have 100 runs you should have
ween 100 and 500 intervals, assuming a maximum run length of 1.5 m (5 feet). The start depth (i.e. depth from) and the
d depth (i.e. depth to) for each interval should be recorded as measured from the top of the hole. This is strictly a
nction of where the drill bit started and ended during the run, and may be less than the length of the maximum run i
cking of the core barrel occurs, the bit requires replacement, etc.

pths of zones of substantial core loss may have to be estimated. For example, if a 1.5 m run of core is completed and
y 1.0 m of core is returned with 0.4 m of crushed rock at the start (first interval) and 0.6 m of competent rock following
cond interval), it is likely that the core loss occurred in the crushed zone. Consequently, the end depth of the first
erval and the start depth of the second interval should be adjusted to account for the 0.5 m loss of core in the crushed
ne. If a downhole survey (e.g. with a televiewer) has been completed, the zone of core loss may be more accurately
fined by the images from the survey, requiring modification of the logs during the matching process with the televiewer
d core logging data.
ore description
e Core description portion of the log covers the lithology, interval determination data, and the rock mass classification.
low is a description of each logging parameter. Both the top and the bottom of the interval are to be recorded.
lour and rock description
lour and rock descriptions should be logged as part of the core logging procedure to indentify the lithologies and
eration sequences encountered. Logging should be based on easy to identify attributes that will in most cases allow rock e to be determined quickly and easily. Such attributes include:
Pattern
Colour
Grain size
Texture
Fabric
Lithology
Alteration
gging these parameters separately and on an interval basis will allow for recognition of subtle variations that wouldrmally be smoothed over in the summary log, and will ensure that the descriptions produced for final reporting are clear,
ncise, and repeatable. Codes describing the above should be decided upon in advance, and kept as simple as possible for
e of data entry and for consistency. An example of possible codes for a geotechnical core logging scheme is included in
ble 2 below.

tal core recovery length
e total length of core recovered by the drillers from an interval is measured. In addition to providing a first indication o
nes of poor rock mass quality or drilling problems, total recovery can be used to check the run block depths provided by
drillers. Also, it is not uncommon for the recovery length to be greater than the drilled length; this often happens when
core breaks above the bottom of the hole on the previous run, or as a result of errors in the measurement of the length
lled. Where multiple intervals and core loss (or gain) occur between two run blocks, a judgement must be made for
ich interval(s) will be recorded as having the difference. Appropriate strategies include:
distribute core loss (or gain) over all intervals between the core blocks
record the interval nearest the first core block as having the differenceselect the interval that contains the most fractured rock as having the difference
mix of strategies may be appropriate; however, a single strategy is generally recommended for consistency and ease o
mparison of data. For programs where corehole televiewer programs are conducted, the downhole images may assist in
ntifying the major zones of core loss.

ck quality designation (RQD) length
e rock quality designation (RQD) is a modified core recovery measurement (Deere and Deere, 1989). For each interval,
total length of all core pieces longer than 10 cm (4 in) as measured along the core centerline, should be determined and
orded as shown in Figure 2.
gure 2: Measuring RDQ length from rock core (after Deere and Deere, 1989)
hen measuring the RQD, the following should be taken into consideration:
The total length of core must include all lost core sections
When summing up the lengths, the breaks created by the driller during removal from the core barrel
(often referred to as “mechanical” breaks) must be ignored
Before measuring the RQD, apply slight pressure with your hands along the length of the core to check
that all the discontinuities have opened. This will help ensure that “tight” joints are properly accounted
for
A “soundness check” should be carried out for weathering / alteration and hardness (R) grades; if W/A
>4 or R≤1, then that length of core does not get counted in the RQD lengthThe RQD length is measured along the axis of the core
If RQD can be measured in the split tubes (if triple tube drilling has been carried out) before the core is
put into the box this will result in a more accurate estimate of RQD
mber of discontinuities
e number of geological discontinuities (fractures, joints, shears, bedding, etc.) within each interval is counted and
orded. Breaks in the core from the process of drilling or boxing the drill core (mechanical breaks) are not included in
s count.
chanical breaks are identified by sharp core edges at the break and will often have clean breakage surfaces with no
illing and no discolouration. If the cause of the break in the core is in doubt, treat the break as a natural feature and
lude it in the discontinuity count. The core shown in Figure 3 has this kind of clear breakage.

gure 3: Example of when the number of discontinuities can be counted directly from the core
here discontinuities with thick infillings, faults, or zones of soil-like material are encountered count 1 discontinuity per 1
of infilling, fault zone, or soil zone thickness along the core centre line.
ure 4 shows a sample where discontinuities must be estimated.
gure 4: Example of when the discontinuity number must be estimated
r intervals that have closely spaced discontinuities too numerous to count (possible in bedded, laminated, or foliated
ks), resulting in “discs” of core, the number of discontinuities can be estimated. This is done by measuring the average
e of the core pieces and dividing the interval length by the average piece size. For example, a 30 cm zone of broken rock
ere the average particle size is 3 cm in diameter would count as 10 discontinuities. “Default” numbers for highly
ctured rock should not be used
mber of sets
e number of discontinuity sets present in the rock mass is used to determine the joint set number (Jn), a parameter used
Barton’s Q rock mass classification system. The most accurate way to determine the number of joint sets is to process
e orientation data and determine the number of sets from stereographic projection of the discontinuity data. In the
ence of core orientation data it may take several drill core runs to see all of the sets present, particularly if there are
dely spaced sets present. This parameter can be extrapolated forwards and backwards in the drill core from zones where
set numbers are obvious; however, make sure that if there are changes occurring in the structural fabric they aren’t
ssed by averaging the sets over long sections of hole. Use whole numbers only, so if you have 2 sets and no other distinct
tures, use 2, if there are other features use 3. This is a slightly conservative approach that is acceptable because it is
ficult to determine at the core scale whether widely spaced discontinuities form sets. It is important not to include
chanical breaks in this number.
ength grade
e strength grade (Table 4), sometimes referred to as hardness grade, is a field estimate of the strength of the intact
terial. It is important to use your hands, knife and rock hammer when estimating the strength of a sample. When using
hammer remember that only a firm blow need be applied. Also, make sure that the induced break does not occur along
iscontinuity, otherwise the strength test is invalid.
single value should be used for the strength grade. If the grade within the interval ranges from one hardness grade to
other (e.g. is between 3 and 4), use half values (e.g. 3.5). If the hardness is extremely variable, consider splitting the run
o two or more intervals to accurately capture the variability.

2/W2Slightly Weathered
or Altered
Rock may be slightly discoloured, particularly adjacent to discontinuities, which may be
open and will have slightly discoloured surfaces; the intact rock is may be weaker than the
fresh rock.
eathering/alteration grade
e weathering/alteration grade is a measure of how the core properties (i.e. strength, mineralogy, etc.) have beenanged from their original form. Although these two characteristics are often paired together, it is important to make a
tinction between weathering and alteration. Weathering is the result of exposure to and infiltration by surface agents
. surface water, ice, air, freeze-thaw cycles, organic activity, etc.) and is limited by proximity to the ground surface.
athering is a relatively recent geologic process affecting the rock mass. Alteration is a result of the geological formation
the rock mass itself, resulting in physical or chemical changes. The effects of alteration generally pre-date weathering
ects; however, it may be very difficult to distinguish the two. In addition, alteration, in the context of geotechnical
ging, is generally used to downgrade the strength of the rock mass (e.g. sericitization, chloritization, argillization,
.). However, there are alteration types that can increase the strength of the rock mass (e.g. silicification, phyllic, etc.).
ore sophisticated systems to define alteration type and intensity are often employed by geologists when characterizing
ore deposit, and should be evaluated to determine their relationship to the geomechanical properties of the rock mass.
ble 5 provides suggested weathering/ alteration grades and their associated descriptions. As for hardness values, a single
athering/alteration value should be used. If the weathering/alteration is extremely variable, consider splitting the run
o two or more intervals to accurately capture the variability.

scontinuity description
gineering in rock provides different challenges than those faced when using soil or concrete as engineering materials
cause rock is a discontinuous material: the rock mass is made of blocks defined by joints, bedding, faults, etc.
scontinuities). The geological and engineering properties of the discontinuities are important for excavation design.
hile the detail of observations commonly required for a single discontinuity will be familiar to exploration geologist, the
ume of data to be collected over a drilling program can be overwhelming. The level of effort required in discontinuity
a collection must be determined with consideration of the detail required for the level of design of the study, and thectical limitations of the site conditions and the field program schedule.
r detailed engineering studies is it not uncommon for every individual discontinuity to be logged and described to a level
detail that includes all of the observations outlined in the sections below. However, for a geotechnical data collection
gram running concurrently with exploration and relying on the site geology staff at, say a preliminary assessment level,
vision of this amount of detail may not be practical. During the early rock engineering investigation phases of projects
properties, the data collected should focus on:
Estimating the “average” or “typical” properties of the materials at the site
Determining what / where the materials are that may be at the ends of the spectrum of expected
engineering behaviour, i.e. where are the very weak rocks and very strong rocks or the highly plastic
soils and very stiff soils? Those materials that differ significantly from the “general” or “average” site
conditions need to be quickly identified so that they can be explored, because the weaker materials are
most likely the ones that will have the greatest impact on the stability of an excavation.
Identifying and describing the major discontinuity features: faults, weak seams or beds, and/or contacts
between geological units.
least one example of the “typical” discontinuities for the interval should be logged. Where oriented core is conducted,
will be useful to log one or two representative discontinuities of each type in each interval. The following sections
cribe the observations that should be made for logged discontinuities.
scontinuity depth
e discontinuity location should recorded as the total downhole distance along the core from the collar or other zero
erence point used for the program (drill deck, top of stick-up, ground surface) to the intersection of the structure with
core axis to the nearest centimetre. The locations of discontinuities should not be recorded with reference to the
otechnical interval from or to. Instead, the depth to the discontinuity along the core centre line is recommended. Where
ltiple discontinuities occur at the same depth, it is useful to add another digit to the depth measurement to differentiate
ween the features. For example, two discontinuities at 352.21 m could be recorded as 352.211 and 352.212. Since many
abases and 3D geological modelling software tools interpret over lapping depths as errors, this can be avoided with a
all modification to the data collection approach recommended.
iscontinuity orientation
ethods for determining orientation
8/3/2019 Geotechnical Logging Techniques - Mine Design Wiki
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/geotechnical-logging-techniques-mine-design-wiki 11/12
e orientation of discontinuities encountered in a drillhole can be determined a variety of ways. The general concept is to
rk the core with reference to a known direction or location (generally the top or bottom of the core or magnetic north),
pending on the method used to survey the core hole, then measure the relative orientation of the discontinuities to the
erence line. The most common core orientation methods currently in use include the following methods:
Spear 1.
Cralieus2.
Ezy-Mark 3.
Clay-Imprint4.
Ball-Mark 5.
ACT6.Scribe7.
Acoustic or optical televiewer 8.
wnhole surveys of the drillhole, where optical or acoustic images are taken of the discontinuities in the walls of the core
e (method 8) have more recently become popular as technology has become more advanced and the costs for these
thods have decreased. The main advantage of this type of discontinuity orientation method is that because it does not
uire recovery of the core to get a measurement, it is less labour intensive. The main disadvantage of the televiewer
tem is that it still requires characterization of the discontinuity so that the orientations calculated can be assigned to the
propriate structure type, thus requiring some post-processing of the images and development of relational databases to
tch the data from the core logging to the downhole survey data.
pha and beta angles
r drilling programs where more traditional methods of core orientation are undertaken, the orientation of individual
continuities and geological structures can be calculated by measuring the alpha (α ) and beta (β) angles of the
continuity and the orientation of the drillhole at the location of the discontinuity, as determined by a downhole survey
a for the core hole.
e alpha angle (α ) is the angle of intersection of between the discontinuity surface and the core axis (Figure 5). This can
measured with a goniometer, carpenter’s protractor, or even a Douglas-style protractor. The alpha angle is always a
sitive angle between 0o
to 90o
.
e beta angle (β) is measured around the circumference of the core, clock-wise from the reference line provided from the
re orientation method (Ball-Mark, Ezy-Mark, ACT, clay-imprint, various scribe systems, etc.) to the tip of the
continuity farthest down-hole (Figure 1). The beta (β) angle is measured using a linear protractor which has been sized
the diameter of the core.
