A gravity survey is carried out over a suspect ore deposit, revealing a regional linear trend and a local gravity high. The complete Bouguer anomalies

A gravity survey is carried out over a suspect ore deposit, revealing a regional linear trend and a local gravity high. The complete Bouguer anomalies along a transect passing over the center of the gravity high are reported in the table below. Estimate the depth of the ore deposit and its total mass anomaly.
