Drilling a seismic borehole for the National Seismic Network at Mendenhall Laboratory on the main campus of The Ohio State University, Columbus, Franklin County, Ohio. Sprowls Drilling Company of Sunbury, Ohio, did the drilling work for the borehole. At a depth of 125 feet, in the Columbus Limestone, a cavern was encountered. An unsuccessful attempt was made to plug the cavern. The site was abanonded as a location in the United States Geological Survey's nationwide network of seismographs because of the condition of the limestone on the campus of The Ohio State University. The image was taken by Michael C. Hansen in August 1993.
A core section sample of Sharon sandstone/conglomerate drilled by the Ohio Geological Survey's Mobile B-61 Pacemaker core rig in Raccoon Township, Gallia County, Ohio, for a Clarion (No. 4a) coal study. The image was taken in by Michael C. Hansen in 1982 based on information from Ohio Geological Survey Core Record File No. 2541.
A view of the Ohio Geological Survey's core repository at 4140 Fisher Road, Columbus Ohio 43228. The core collection was located at this warehouse, known to the staff as the Phillipi Road Warehouse, between 1984 and the dedication of the Horace R. Collins Laboratory at 3307 South Old State Road, Delaware, Ohio 43015 in 1999. The Ohio Geological Survey's Longyear Hydro-44 drill core rig is shown in this image. The image was made by Michael C. Hansen in 1987.
L.J. Hughes and Sons company operator at the site of a drill hole for coal exploration on Deep Core II project in Stock Township, Noble County, Ohio. The drill core is described in Ohio Geological Survey Core Record File No. 2405. The image was made in November 1977.
A diamond coring bit and a rotary coring bit used for the coal exploration project. L.J. Hughes and Sons company operatored the drill rig at the site of a drill hole for coal exploration on Deep Core II project in Stock Township, Noble County, Ohio. The drill core is described in Ohio Geological Survey Core Record File No. 2405. The image was made in November 1977.
Lifting a drill rig for positionig under the Detroit-Superior Bridge at the Cuyahoga River in Cleveland, Cuyahoga County, Ohio. The image is undated, but was probably taken during the 1950s.
The site of an American Aggregate Corporation quarry lease near the town of Lytle, Warren County, Ohio, where the Ohio Geological Survey's Longyear Hydro-44 drill core rig worked the Warren County Deep Core Hole project. The Warren County Deep Core Hole project was the second continuously cored hole planned to be drilled into the Precambrian basement rock in Ohio. The Ohio Geological Survey expected to reach the Precambrian rock at a depth of about 3,400 feet. At that depth, the drill rig encountered a previously unknown massive sandstone formation underlying the Mount Simon Sandstone of Upper Cambrian rock. The core hole went 1,910 feet into this sandstone. This core DGS # 2627 went to a total depth of 5,380 feet...

L.J. Hughes and Sons company drill rig at the site of Drill Hole #10 for coal exploration at the Deep Core II project in Seneca Township, Monroe County, Ohio. Michael L. Couchot stands at the work table. The drill core is described in Ohio Geological Survey Core Record File No. 2410. The image was taken by Michael C. Hansen in November 1977.
Drilling under the Detriot-Superior Bridge at the Cuyahoga River in Cleveland, Cuyahoga County, Ohio. The image is undated, but was probably taken during the 1950s.
The Ohio Geological Survey's Mobile B-61 Pacemaker core rig drilling in York Township, Belmont County, Ohio, for a coal exploration project. The image was taken in 1983 based on information from Ohio Geological Survey Core Record File No. 2554.

The Ohio Geological Survey's Mobile B-61 Pacemaker core rig drilling the first of 16 core holes for the Superconducting Super Collider (SSC) project. Drilling was done in the Columbus Limestone of the Devonian Geologic Period at the Penry Stone Company, Inc., quarry south of Radnor, Delaware County, Ohio. The SSC was proposed by the United States Department of Energy as the largest, most powerful particle accelerator ever built. It would enable physicists to shatter protons into their consituent subatomic particles in order to study the basic structure of the atom. At least 20 states were expected to submit proposals by August 1987 to be awarded the SSC project location. A detailed geologic report was needed for...
