The LABQUARK event was detonated in hole U19an of the Nevada Test Site. Detonation time was 15:30 PDT on September 30, 1986. A surface collapse occurred at about 3 hour, 51 minutes after detonation. No measurements of the crater dimensions were made, however, visual estimates of the crater depth varied from 1 to 4 feet depending upon the observer. No radiation arrivals were detected above ground and the LABQUARK event containment was satisfactory.
