This contribution comprises true-3D volume datasets ("Digital drill cores"), acquired by a X-ray Computed Microtomography (μ-CT) survey on reference drill core material recovered from Hole 5059-1-D (354 m length to a depth of 290 m, inclined 35° from vertical) on Surtsey volcano (Vestmannaeyjar archipelago, Iceland), drilled by the SUSTAIN drilling project (Surtsey Underwater volcanic System for Thermophiles, Alteration processes and INnovative Concretes, see Jackson et al. 2019 for details).Thirteen reference samples (see Weisenberger et al. 2019 for preparational details) (ranging from 220.35 to 344.47 inclined depth / 180.47 to 282.12 m vertical depth, sampling roughly every 10 m) were scanned as quarter cores. The X-ray μ-CT scans were performed using the ProCon CT-ALPHA system of the Petrology of the Ocean Crust research group at the University of Bremen, Germany.This μ-CT survey has been conducted as part of the DFG SPP 1006 grant "Rates and Processes of Tephra Alteration on Surtsey: Observations and ...
