2.04.6 <br />considered a coal resource the interburden between seams must be at least <br />50 feet. The B -1 Seam overlies the A -Seam by 86 to 106 feet. <br />The C -Seam overlies the B -2 Seam by 38 to over 114 feet. The seam does <br />not meet the minimum physical criteria to be considered a coal resource. <br />The C -Seam thickness ranges from 2 to 7 feet. The areas where the seam <br />does achieve a mineable thickness are laterally discontinuous and do not <br />comprise a reserve of adequate areal extent to be considered a coal <br />resource. <br />The D -1 Seam, lower D -Seam, does not meet the minimum physical criteria <br />to be considered a coal resource. The D -1 Seam thickness ranges from 2 to <br />6 feet. The areas where the seam does achieve a mineable thickness are <br />laterally discontinuous and do not comprise a reserve of adequate areal <br />extent to be considered a coal resource. <br />The D -2 Seam, upper D -Seam, overlies the Rollins Sandstone by 350 to 450 <br />feet and is 46 to 105 feet above the D -1 Seam. The D -2 Seam was mined <br />out from the Bowie No. 2 Mine. Seam thickness ranged from 8 to 16 feet. <br />The E -2 and E -1 Seams on the property were correlated and measured. <br />Neither seam meets the minimum physical criteria to be considered a coal <br />resource. The E -2 Seam thickness ranges from 2 to 4 feet. The E -1 Seam <br />thickness ranges for 2 to 5 feet. The interburden between the seams <br />averages about 66 feet. The E -1 Seam overlies the D -2 seam by 171 to 192 <br />feet. <br />The F Seam was not positively identified on the property. <br />A geologic map with geologic cross sections of the proposed permit, <br />including coal crop lines and the strike and dip of the coal to be mined is <br />presented as Map 07. <br />�J <br />PR -12 2.04-19- 06/10 <br />,q /PRavE/� <br />
