Quote of an email sent to all the fellow scientists aboard from Chiara Amadori (Physical Properties Specialist/Stratigraphic Correlator, University of Pavia, Italy): “Dear all, for the sake of Science, I think we should treat the basement core from 1560C as well as the others. See you tomorrow at the sampling table :)”. (Credit: Chiara Amadori & IODP) [Photo ID: 221_exp393_C0416.jpg]
