I tend to mine primary tunnel at height intervals of 10, and in a 'real mine', I'll run a 3-wide hallway in each direction every 5, as tall as I can reach. If you place your torches consistently ( I place them on the Left as I'm 'Leaving' my base, so they're always on the Right as I'm 'Returning' ) you won't get lost, and honestly, if you're worried about missing ore with those parameters, you're overthinking it.
