From the NASA Landsat Image Mosaic of Antarctica, you can read that the ice ". . . averages more than one mile in thickness, but is nearly three miles thick in places."
The maximum thickness of ice in the Antarctic ice sheet is 15,670 feet. It averages 7,300 feet on the eastern side and 4,285 feet on the western side.
One cubic yard is equivalent to 27 cubic feet. To determine how many square feet it will cover at a thickness of 3 inches, convert inches to feet (3 inches = 0.25 feet). Then, divide the volume (27 cubic feet) by the thickness (0.25 feet): 27 ÷ 0.25 = 108 square feet. Thus, 1 cubic yard will cover 108 square feet at a thickness of 3 inches.
Not all of the Antarctic ice sheet has been measured for depth. At the South Pole, the depth of the ice is 2,700 meters or 9,000 feet; at Vostok, the depth of the ice is 3,488 meters or 11,444 feet. The thickness of the continent varies, depending on the location.

1 cubic yard covers 324 square feet per inch of thickness, divide 324 by thickness in inches to get coverage, i.e. 4 inches thick would cover 324/4=81 square feet, 36 inches thick would cover (you guessed it) 9 square feet.

Glaciers can range in thickness from around 100 feet to well over 3,000 feet, with some of the thickest glaciers in Antarctica reaching depths of over 15,000 feet. Thickness depends on factors such as accumulation rate, temperature, and pressure.

It depends on a number of factors such as the porosity of the surface, thickness of the coverage.
Gravel averages 100 pounds per cubic foot or 20 cubic feet per ton. That's depth x width x length. So if you want to cover something 6 inches deep, you can cover 40 square feet of surface.
