Geo-technical testing - project update #003

Last week we started testing where is the rock located below surface. Initial results with back hoe were positive - there is basically 2-3 foot of topsoil before the soil starts transitioning to limestone. There will be additional drilling done later to verify that the thickness of the topsoil and depth of limestone is uniform throughout the site. So it is a good news that we have rock close to the surface, so foundation will be directly on rock, but it is not too close, so we do not have to spend too much on removing rock from the site. I attached pictures of the first equipment we got on site. Next month there will be a drilling rig there.
