We are having a set of drive-only sols, to reach our next Waypont Kimberley in the next few days. At Kimberley we may do our third drill hole. The plan is for material from the drill hole wto be analysed by X-ray diffraction in CheMin. However, in order to check that we havent left material over from our previous analyses at Cumberland, John Klein (Yellowknife Bay) or the Rocknest scooped soil, we have taken images of the CheMin sieve inlet with MAHLI. This MAHLI image was illuminated with the white LEDs around MAHLI.
