<br />EXHIBIT D <br />' Geology <br />8 Mile Clay Mine is located in interbedded red and green ciaystone <br />of the Morrison formation of upper Jurassic age overlain by about a <br />125 foot thickness of lower Cretaceous Dakota sandstone. The strata <br />here have been warped gently upward to the north along the north side <br />I of the Canon City embayment by the uplift of the Front Range during <br />the Laramide orogeny 65 million years ago. They now strike about <br />N25° and dip southwesterly at about 8°. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />1 <br /> <br /> <br />1 <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
