How long will it take to analyse 150 crystalline core samples for its rock magnetism and geomagnetism?
Do you intend to re-magnetize or measure the remanent field ?
I guess you are interested in measuring remanent magnetic fields.
You can get in contact with Professor Meludu and or Professor Elijah Ayolabi. Both of them are in Nigeria and have worked on similar thing for their PhDs with then Dr. S. C. Garde an Indian who set up the laboratory at the Department of Physics, University of Ibadan. I don't think the laboratory is still functioning after departure of Dr. Garde to India about 16 years ago.
Thank you sir. Sir is it possible to get core drill machine of 1 inch diameter core in Department of Physics or any other place in Nigeria?
The core machine is not available in Physics department but can get from some individuals and some geotechnical companies. You can send a private message to me and get the links.
To answer your question, it depends of your lab equipment, your energy (working all time or not), your experimental protocol. It can take from 2 weeks to 2 months. It depends.
we have a well equipped paleomagnetic lab in National Research Institute of Astronomy and Geophysics (NRIAG) / Helwan / Egypt, and we welcome any scientific cooperation
