Abstract
Research in paleomagnetism requires the collection of continuous, undisturbed, and oriented cores from fine-grained sub-surface deposits. The authors have found the Giddings coring machine to be a suitable device which offers a rapid and accurate alternative to hand-cut sampling from natural outcrops. This hydraulic machine collects undisturbed and oriented cores to a maximum depth of 16 m. It has been widely used in the study of soil engineering and hydraulic properties as well as in other geotechnical investigations of fine-grained materials. Keywords: paleomagnetism, coring, oriented sampling.
