Coring reached its total depth this afternoon at 6523 ft. #DeepDust
The Isotope Lab @eapsMIT is a participant in the Anadarko Basin coring project (#DeepDust), supported by @icdpDrilling and @NSF. Coring began on August 16 and exceeded 1 mile as of last weekend. @J_Ramez is on site right now as part of the science team. icdp-online.org/projects/by-…

I joined the Anadarko Basin coring project #DeepDust drill site last weekend. We have gone through more that 500 ft of core in the last couple of mornings with more under way.

The Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument in Utah has been instrumental to our research on the Cretaceous Western Interior Basin at MIT. The proposed cuts to the area of the monument will be a huge setback for our future research.
Society of Vertebrate Paleontologists is taking legal action against Trump's cuts to two national monuments in Utah. If you conduct research in areas of either monument, please let David Polly know at svp_president@vertpaleo.org
