METHOD AND EQUIPMENT FOR RECORDING AND PROCESSING DIGITAL IMAGES OF DRILL CORES

摘要

A method for recording and processing digital images of a slabbed drill core (10), is characterised in that the images of the drill core (10) are recorded directly by means of a high resolution, digital camera (9) moved in equal intervals along the drill core (10). While the records are taken, the drill core is illuminated by a constant light in a direction having an angle ( alpha ) with respect to the surface of the drill core, as the digital recorded data are transferred to a computer (6) for further processing and storing.
