Abbreviations used UTP - unable to penetrate, Bec. – becoming, N.S.L. – Natural Surface Level Med. – medium, MW - Moderately weathered EW - extremely weathered, Plast. - Plasticity No recovery means unable to extract samples from the base of the bore hole because the soil will not bind in the auger head.
