The photos of the core in the crates don’t mean jack. We know they are drilling and there are and will be cores; that’s a fact, but ‘spod visible in every tray’ comment and probably the image of the foot long pearl piece is probably what they are concerned about.
But Michael isn’t a geo and that pearl piece technically could have of come from anywhere; so its a comment from a non geo about trays and a piece of rock at the end of the day.
I liked the look of the MO18 trays though, look like concrete..
