My high school "trig" is long forgotten and wouldn't know where to find the tables...I measured a door top to bottom ..measured 80 inches...let this represent the true thickness of the dyke....after popping the door off its hinges clamped a carpenters square on the bottom corner of the door so that the bottom of the door was at 15 degrees on the square....set the clamped square and door upright on the level floor ...the door now represents a side view of the dyke dipping at 15 degrees...dropped a "PLUM" line from top of door to bottom and measured the distance...this represents a vertical drill hole which measured 82.25 inches...Willp's calculations of less than 3% variance looks correct to me the old way...I get 2.81% on 80 inches of true thickness.

This from wsp's NR of mar 26

"However, the average dip
of the kimberlite appears to be about 15 degrees; hence, true
thickness at each site is expected to be approximately 90% of
reported down-hole thickness. "
As Willp and others have stated this 90% figure seems wrong.
