An Investigation of Core Drilling in Perennially Frozen Gravels and Rock
The problems of obtaining frozen samples by core drilling of perennially frozen gravel and rock were investigated. Most of the core drilling was carried out in ice-bonded, well-graded alluvial gravel with the ground temperature near its freezing point. Both chilled compressed air and oil-based liqui...
