10 points for Gryffindor!elephantower wrote:C'mon people! We need a *lot* more questions and answers!{Listric fault?}
Next question:
An underground passage linking two cave systems follows the line of intersection of the base of a limestone bed and a vertical rock fracture. The bedding in the limestone dips 060/60 and the strike of the fracture is 010. What is the plunge of the passage?

Re: Geologic Mapping C Question Marathon
Haha let me guess: You're reading Geological Structures and Maps: A Practical Guide? I liked that problem
How steep? I get 48.07 degrees

Re: Geologic Mapping C Question Marathon
Oh, next question: A coal seam dips 4/230. The mining company wants to have passages with a slope of at least 3.5 degrees to ensure proper drainage. Give the range of possible azimuths for the passages.
Bonus points if you can ID the textbook this came from
EDIT: Or if you want a simple knowledge problem--what is an ophiolite and how are they created?

Right-O! Ok then looks like you need a harder random knowledge question:

Re: Geologic Mapping C Question Marathon
Ooh here's one: Name the 4 types of ocean sedimentary environments.
Also, what area of the rules do you need questions in the most?

Re: Geologic Mapping C Question Marathon
And another:
The above image is the map symbol of a geologic structure. What is the structure, and how is it formed?

Re: Geologic Mapping C Question Marathon
I have an answer to you're calculation problem but I solved it in a different way than my usual construction so it could very well be wrong.
