During the course of the 1997 drilling campaign, lithostratigraphic boundaries were assigned to the CRP-l core on the basis of perceived changes in lithology. The geologically most important boundary in the core, between the Miocene and overlying Quaternary sections, was placed at 43.55 mbsf. This h...
