Question
Scale (meters) 7 0 50 40 30 20 10 a. Draw lines between the three stratigraphic sections below to connect the geologic contacts between similar Lithologies. (USE A RULER!!.) Note that each vertical column is a stratigraphic section. Each lithologic unit can be regarded as a bed. b. How many beds can be correlated across all three sections? c. How thick is the thickest stratigraphic section (or column of rocks)? (Note: We are not asking about this thickest BED. We are asking about the thickest SECTION. Also note that the scale goes from 0 to 70 meters.) d. A bed of coal is present in sections B and C. How deep would you have to drill in section A (starting at the top of the section, up near the letter A) to reach the buried coal seam?
