Which of the following is not the characteristic of Mumbai offshore Basin?
A)
The age of Mumbai offshore basin ranges from late Cretaceous to Holocene with thick sedimentary fill ranging from 1100-5000m.
B)
Mumbai offshore is a peri-cratonic rift basin situated on western continental margin of India, Paleocene- Lower Eocene source rocks, seals are Middle to Upper Miocene shales.
C)
Mumbai offshore is an intra-cratonic, structural and stratigraphic traps, Paleocene- Eocene source rocks, cap rocks are Middle to Upper Miocene shales
D)
Structural trap, source rocks are clastic sediments of Paleocene- Eocene (Panna Formation), reservoir rocks are Sandstone, Limestone and Siltstone and cap rocks are Middle to Upper Miocene shales.
Mumbai offshore is a peri-cratonic rift basin, not an intra-cratonic basin; therefore C is the incorrect characteristic.

Choose the conclusions which logically follow from the given statements. Statements: All the phones are scales. All the scales are calculators. Conclusions: 1. All the calculators are scales. 2. All the phones are calculators 3. All the scales are phones. 4. Some calculators are phones.
A)
Only (1) and (4)
B)
Only (3) and (4)
C)
Only (2) and (4)
D)
Only (1) and (2)
All phones are scales and all scales are calculators, so all phones are calculators. Under the question's conventional syllogism treatment, some calculators are phones also follows; hence C.

How to drill a hole the epigenetic mineralization, which is associated with normal fault, to predict the likely attitude of high grade ore shoots within or adjacent to it after initial discovery of ore?
A)
By drilling a hole to along strike from the discovery hole to intersect the target at the same depth.
B)
By drilling a hole to the same depth as the discovery hole and along strike from it.
C)
By drilling a deeper hole on the same cross-section.
D)
By drilling a hole along the dip direction from the discovery hole.
Drilling along the dip direction from the discovery hole helps intersect the same structure at different positions and can constrain the attitude of high-grade shoots.

Which of the following material is lowest metal factor?
A)
Clay
B)
Gravel
C)
Limestone
D)

Which of the following statement is false about resistivity method?
A)
The small inter- electrode distances provide a very detailed image of near- surface inhomogeneities.
B)
An apparent resistivity map for a given electrode spacing indicates the general lateral variation in electrical properties in the area.
C)
If the data of Wenner sounding, the measured resistivity is plotted on the x-axis and the electrode separation on the y- axis.
D)
The data of Schlumberger sounding are plotted with electrode separation along the x-axis. This data should be drawn on a double logarithmic paper.
The statement that resistivity surveys do not require electrode contact is false; electrode-based resistivity methods generally require electrical contact with the ground.

Field data is corrected for diurnal variation, but no corrections for location, elevation and topography in which survey?
A)
Gravity
B)
Magnetic
C)
Electrical Resistivity
D)
Seismic
Magnetic-survey data are routinely corrected for diurnal variation, while the gravity method also requires substantial location, elevation and terrain corrections.
