Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to the dividing up and testing of bulk samples from cores of rock. The method involves the extraction of several plugs for triaxial testing which are derived from exactly the same level in the core, and also Brazilian test samples and samples for compositional and textural analysis from the same level. Triaxial tests with different confining pressures may be performed to destruction on separate triaxial plugs, allowing a reliable full Mohr-Coulomb analysis to be performed. Mechanical properties may be related more reliably to composition and texture of rock. The technique is especially useful for non-conventional rock such as shale.
