Calculation example - Find the bearing of an apparent dip (two symmetrical to full dip directions), given the rate and direction of full dip
Contents [show]
Given the rate and direction of full dip of a plane or seam, find the bearing of an apparent dip.
Two directions noted, in which a given apparent dip occurs.
Known values:
Full dip direction = α
Full dip rate = 1 in x
Apparent dip rate = 1 in y
Solution:
Bearing AC and Bearing AD
Thus:
