Figure F13. Average rates of recovery and penetration (ROP) for drilling in Hole 1256D (see Table T3). Note the improvement in both parameters in gabbroic rocks back to near-average rates for the entire hole (recovery = ~36%; ROP = ~1.2 m/h). Recovery was very low and penetration excruciatingly slow in the granoblastic dikes.
