1. A high magnesium limestone stratum dips 25°N2°W and crops out at an elevation of 480 feet. A
test hole is drilled starting 350 feet map distance N25°E from the outcrop and with a collar
elevation of 530 feet. The hole has a slope of 30° from the vertical in a direction S53°W. At what
drill-hole distance should the stratum be encountered?
2. The dip of the superface of a sphalerite bearing limestone is 25°S42°W. A drillcore sample is to
be taken at a point 380 feet slope distance down the hillside from the superface outcrop. The
hillside slopes 6° in the direction of the dip. At what depth should the top of the ore-bearing bed
limestone be expected?
3. An outcrop of the superface of the Dakota Sandstone dip 17°S37°E. A water well is drilled 2000
feet slope distance from the exposure at the base of a slope inclined 6°S2°E. At what depth
would the sandstone be reached?
