and the next known exposure is in a draw west of Mogul creek, above
the trail and on the west side. On Mogul creek there is an exposure above
the trail. From Mogul creek the outcrop is estimated to run south-
easterly back from the river, and just above the third or high falls on Moose-
bar creck a seam exposed is correlated with the Mogul. West of the type
exposure at Earle narrows the outcrop is estimated to run northwesterly
below the river channel and either to the low cliffs at Fossil-tree point, or
to below river level in front of Fossil-tree point.

“At the type exposure on the south bank at Earle narrows there are
4 feet 8 inches of coal and a couple of small concretions. The bottom 5
inches is of jet coal. To the southeast 0-28 mile, on Aylard creek, the
section is as follows and includes 3 feet 6 inches of coal:

The concretion appears to be local. In the draw west of Mogul creek
0-35 mile distant, there is 4 feet 4 inches of coal. On Mogul creek 0-06
mile distant, there is 3 feet 2 inches of coal:

“To the southwest 2-1 miles, on Moosebar creek, the seam correlated
with the Mogul has 3 feet 4 inches of coal. Thus, between Mogul creek
and Earle narrows, a distance of about three-quarters of a mile, this seam
is known in four places and maintains a thickness of from 3 feet 2 inches
to 4 feet 8 inches..... Whether this thickness is maintained all the way

to Moosebar creek cannot be said, for it is not known to be exposed in
that interval.

Castle Point Seam

“The Castle Point seam is about 585 feet below the Moosebar contact.
It is exposed on the north side of the river at Milligan point near the
bottom of the cliff. From there the outcrop runs inland and comes to
the river again on the north bank at Earle narrows, but there is no exposure
there, the seam being concealed on the axis of the roll. From there the
outcrop runs southeasterly and crosses the river to Aylard creek; there is
an exposure just east of Aylard creek on the south bank. Downstream
