Chieh Peng (Assistant Laboratory Officer, IODP-USIO/TAMU) snaps a quick photo to record a sample that Jason Sylvan (Microbiologist, University of Southern California, USA) will take for testing in the Microbiology lab. The samples are sometimes wrapped in foil to help prevent contamination and to protect them from the light. Trevor Cobine (Paleomagnetism Laboratory, IODP-USIO/TAMU) is ready to help.
