• Lease C-020740 --- 40.0 Acres <br />This lease is Located near the eastern end of the Book Cliff's coal <br />field. There are no known drill holes in the block. Adjacent property <br />owners drilled some holes in the vicinity in 1976, the closest of these <br />being a hole (CC-76-1) about 1800 feet east and a hole (CC-76-5) about <br />2300 feet south of the south boundary. Eased on these holes and general <br />geologic information on the area, there are three coal seams on the <br />property, discussed in more detail below. <br />1. Carbonera Seam <br />This is the uppermost.of the three seams, overlying the Cameo <br />by 50 to 60 feet on the lease. The seam is not mineable in the Roadside <br />Pfine area, and it is not believed to be mineable in this block based on <br />• the adjacen*_ drill holes. Drill hole CC-76-1 shows 6.79' total thickness <br />of which only 4.1` is coal, being two layers with 2.6' of parting material. <br />Drill hole CC-76-S shows four thin seams, the thickest of which is 2.5', <br />spread over 9.93' thickness with partings between 1.89' and 2.53' thick <br />between seams. <br />Based on the data above, it does not appear there is mineable <br />Carbonera seam coal in this block. <br />However, as required, a "Reserve Base" was figured using the best <br />available information. Using the total thickness of 6.79`, which includes <br />partings, the total coal in place calculates aut to 488,880 tons. <br />Information from adjacent Boles shows the quality as follows: <br />rioisture, as received 7.1G% FSI 1 <br />Btu, as received 10,426 C (dr}•) 63.1I% <br />• <br />Ash, dr}• 20.12'; H (dry 4.65% <br />Volatile maccer, dry 36.05% N (dry) 1.2ti% <br />Fixed carbon, dry 43.84"/, C1 (dry) 0.02': <br />Btu, dr}• 11,232 0 (dry) 9.7G:: <br />Sulfur, dry 0.87% <br />
