A container for receiving and retaining a sample from a subterranean formation, wherein the container is arranged to be removably accommodated within a coring assembly. The container comprises a receptacle, formed from at least two receptacle portions and a connector for connecting each receptacle portion to the adjacent receptacle portion, such that the receptacle portions are separable on disconnection of the connector. The receptacle portions can be complementary to form a receptacle in the shape of a substantially hollow cylinder. A cylinder axis can be defined by the long axis extending through the cylinder. The receptacle portions can be connectable along a line parallel to the cylinder axis of the receptacle such that at least one of the receptacle portions is movable radially away from the sample on disconnection of the connector.
