Soil & Rock Core Logging

Soil and Rock Core Logging

Accurate soil and rock core logging forms the foundation of sound geotechnical and geological planning. Whether your team requires in-field support or retrospective data analysis, our experienced geologists deliver detailed soil, rock and drill core logs in accordance with AS 1726.

We support quarries and geotechnical consultancies by delivering expert logging services.
