Abstract: A core orientation device for a core drill. The device includes an arrangement for providing signals associated with a physical orientation of a core sample relative to a body of material from which the core sample is extracted. Signals are processed so as to provide processed data from which a measure of the physical orientation of the core sample can be established. The measure is associated with the physical orientation of an inner tube of the device at a particular moment in time when the core sample was separated from the body of material. To this end there is provided an interface permitting storage of the processed data in the memory and accessing the memory to provide the measure of the physical orientation of core sample when required.

Abstract: A core orientation device (10) for a core drill (12). The device (10) includes an arrangement (14) for providing signals (16) associated with a physical orientation (18) of the core orientation device (10). Processing means (22) are provided for processing the signals (16) so as to provide processed data (23) from which a measure (24) of the physical orientation (18) of the core orientation device (10) can be established. The measure (24) is associated with the physical orientation (18) of the device (10) at a particular moment in time. A memory (26) is coupled to the processing means 22 for storing the processed data 23. To this end there is provided an interface means (27) including first means (28) for storing the processed data (23) in the memory (26) and second means (30) for accessing the memory (26) to provide the measure (24) of the physical orientation (18) of core orientation device (10) when required.
