    Some description need to add in certain


    type of lithology:
    Grain color - mainly to describe grains in loose sand
    Cutting Shape - typically texture for soft sediment like
    coal, shale and siltstone, but some features recognized
    as pressure and bit type effect
    Fissility - main internal structure to identified shale
    Luster - mainly used for mineral or showing degree of
    coal maturity
    Crystallinity - specially used for limestone
