Tt is possible J13 and J14 are identical and correspond to M2. “The sections

of J13 and M2 are very similar, each having a small rider of dull coal above ie

and the-correspondence of these two is highly probable. In the case of J14,
however, the similarity is much less, and its analysis would almost exclude the
possibility of its being correlated with M2. Unfortunately no samples were taken
Ger diSe Bi Aes pees:

“Tn eases where a seam is visible over a considerable distance, the thicknesses
of the individual benches of coal and shale are variable, the shale sandstone
partings in the seams being frequently of a lenticular nature, increasing within
a distance of a few feet from 1 inch to over 1 foot in thickness, and diminishing
again as rapidly. The sections given represent, as nearly as could be observed,
average conditions ”.1

Coal seams are also reported as outcropping on Eightmile creek 7 or 8 miles
from its mouth. _
