abstract This British Geological Survey (BGS) regional marine sampling survey took place in two phase in July & October 1985 on the Continetal Slope north-west of Scotland on board the MV Pholas and MV Bucentaur. The purpose was to investigate Quaternary Stratigraphy and assist in the regional mapping of bedrock geology. Seabed boreholes were cored using Wireline drilling and Piston sampling equipment. These data are archived by BGS. Technical details of the survey are contained in BGS Internal Report WB/86/20C.
