SK 252B: X-Ray CT Data for an Igneous Rock Core Sample

X-ray computed tomography data captures the internal structure of an igneous rock core sample designated SK 252B. The dataset was contributed by author Scott Eckley and harvested by the Texas Data Repository. It was last updated on March 18, 2024.

Use Cases

• Analyze rock porosity and permeability based on 3D pore network data.
• Segment and classify mineral phases within the rock based on density contrasts.
• Create digital rock models for fluid flow simulation based on the CT scan.
• Study igneous rock texture and fabric for geological interpretation.

Strengths

• Data is specifically from an igneous rock core sample, providing material specificity.
• Last update timestamp (2024-03-18 08:07:26) is provided, indicating recent metadata activity.

Limitations

• Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count and file size are unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
