SAMPLE INFO : 97EC16I

Sample ID:	97EC16I
Station ID:	97EC16
Latitude:	55.2838
Longitude:	-162.6669
Datum:	NAD83
Date Sampled:	1997-01-01
Sample Type 1:	Tephra Fall

Text Description:
Only horizon collected from the Kinzarof Lagoon bluff that does not show distinct boundaries with the silt. In outcrop, it was described as being a 16-cm thick yellow-brown dense clay with brown stringers in the upper 5 cm. BSE imaging of the sample (Fig. 11 d in Carson 1998) showed small, although recognizable, glass shards intermixed with clay, lithic fragments, and mineral crystals. Reworked.
