📎 Alpha / beta / gamma — which goes where?
- Alpha (α) 0–90°: angle between the core axis and the plane, read on the long axis of the ellipse. 90° = plane perpendicular to the core, 0° = parallel to it. Never above 90° — the grid blocks it.
- Beta (β) 0–360°: measured clockwise, looking down-hole, from the orientation (bottom-of-hole) line round the core to the down-hole apex of the ellipse.
- Gamma (γ) 0–360°: for linear features (lineations, slickenlines, fold axes) — on the plane, from the ellipse long axis (down-hole apex) to the lineation.
- Confidence: how good the orientation line was. No orientation line → log alpha only and set confidence to 4.
- Device: record the instrument (kenometer, Ezy-Logger, goniometer…).
Many TOB holes at once? Use the Collars tab and paste the list from Excel/GPS, then log samples under Drillhole samples → ★ Multiple holes.
Results-only import. Each result is attached to the sample where it is already registered (QAQC → drill core → surface). Samples that are not registered, or belong to a company you can't edit, are skipped and listed. The certificate number is written onto the matched samples as their lab batch.
⇧ Upload certificates
PDFs as received from the lab (A4COA = certificate of analysis, QCDOC = QC certificate). The certificate number and type are read from the file name – check them before uploading. Results themselves are imported with 🧪 ALS import.
One Excel workbook with a sheet per table (drillholes, geology, structures, samples, QAQC …) plus combined sheets where each sample's metadata is joined to its assay results (one column per element) – the same workbook as the admin export.
