That such was the case is shown in the curves and cross section on Graph No. 14. Complete depth determinations were made at each station and the resistivities were plotted for 5 depths, 20, 40, 60, 80, and 100 feet. LOCATION OF FAULT By running traverses across a fault at three selected places a small variety of contacts were studied electrically. In one place the St. Peter sandstone was faulted against the Plattin limestone; in another, St. Peter sandstone was faulted against Maquoketa shale; and in the 576
