Notes: * = Time scales of Berggren et al. (1995) and Gradstein et al. (1995). ** = Depths of basement contact noted by the driller. All other basement depths are curated depths. *** = Driller noted basement at 969 m. However, 1.4 m of basalt was recovered from a cored interval that bottomed at 970 mbsf, yielding a basement depth of 968.6 mbsf.
