3.2.1 Springs above the F-Seam in the North Fork Drainage Basin
3.2.1.1 Spring 24-3
Spring 24-3 is located in the West Flatiron drainage that is the first tributary entering Raven Gulch
from the west, which is tributary to the North Fork and east of the West Flatiron mining panels.
This spring issues from a sandstone bed above the F-Seam, flows seasonally, and is typically dry in
the late summer and fall months (Map 2). Monitoring at this spring began in 1998.
3.2.1.2 Wirings E-13-1 E-13-2 E-13-3, E-13-4
Springs E-13-1, E-13-2, E-13-3, and E-13-4 are located in the lower West Flatiron drainage that is
the first tributary entering Raven Gulch from the west, which is tributary to the North Fork and east
of the West Flatiron mining panels. These springs issue from sandstone beds above the F-Seam,
flow seasonally, and are typically dry in the late summer and fall months (Map 2). These springs
have been monitored since 2001.
3.2.1.3 Spring 26-1
Spring 26-1 is located in a drainage on the west side of the Deep Creek drainage between the
• Upper and Lower Deep Creek monitoring stations (Map 2). Deep Creek is tributary to Raven
Gulch and the North Fork. This spring is located above the east side of mine Panel 15 (Box
