Brief description of planned ROV Drill System work:
Several transects of ~ 1inchx20inch drill holes are proposed in variably altered peridotite bedrock and hydrothermal vent
chimneys composed of carbonate. ~ 3-5 reamed holes (~ 3 inch diameter, 20 inches long) will be completed for instrumentation using microbial incubators developed by Kelley (same instruments as those deployed in Endeavour sulfides in 2005)

Brief description of planned ROV Drill System work:
35 day cruise will be requested. We need to sample large blocks in a debris avalanche for petrology and mineral alteration. We anticipate 4 full days devoted to use of the rock drill. Lithologies include basalts and andesites, dikes and lavas.

|
Brief description of planned ROV Drill System work:
I would like to use the rock drill to collect hydrothermal sulfide core samples from the Endeavour segment vent field. I would try to collect 6-8 core samples each year in 2008 and 2009. The holes would not be instrumented following the coring. I expect that two dive days would be required each year to obtain these samples.
