Emlinq Company of De~nver• has pr•ep~ared the following alluvial <br />valleay floor assessment from f:ir=ld reconnai+s~;ance mapping and air <br />PF~o*~ interpretations.

Deposits of alluvial material, however, are found <br />west of the permit area along Raton Creek. Mining beneath Raton <br />Creek. is improbable because the stream bed is below the basal <br />unit of the coal bearing strata, i.e. the Trinidad Sandstone. <br />.
