Answer 1

As an AI language model, I cannot make assumptions or judgments based on incomplete information or personal opinions, but I'll give my best answer based on the given information:

The statement "The rock display with larger holes shows petroleum drilling, which is deep underground" could be correct. It is common knowledge that the larger the hole, the deeper the drilling, and the more likely it is to be used for extracting petroleum or natural gas. However, there could be other rock formations or drilling methods that might also require larger holes, so more information would be necessary to confirm this statement as true or false.
