Control (Earth) 4 gets you 160 lbs. of controlled material in a go, meaning you have 25 "loads" worth of dirt with your level of control. For each load, assuming 2 seconds to establish control (walking/stooping to the next patch then concentrating) and also assuming you need to move each patch of soil a total of ~20 feet (from the center of the 21-foot patch and up the 9 foot depression, total 19.5 feet) at a rate of Move 4 for your Control level (16 feet a second, for a total of 2 seconds to move each batch completely out of the hole); total 4 seconds per batch.
In short, we arrive at about 100 seconds of walking around and concentrating to move all the dirt out of the hole in question. For brick and stone you'd do the same thing, just find the new weight per foot of the material in question and plug it into the above procedure.

that's a very different weight per yard then the previous poster, hmmmmm.
