RE:RE:RE:RE:This was the most significant announcement made by NFGThe core shack is used to store the core and other samples before and sometimes after analysis. It is analagous to a core library. If a geologist want to look at hole 21-100 it can be pulled out and put on a work table. At NFG his/her office will be in the same building.
Often the core shack is abandon along with the property All of the wood rots away and the core ends up in a useless heap on the ground.
