Seite 266 - The major axis is approximately 90 miles long and trends nearly due north and south close to the west limb of the dome. The beds along the west limb dip from 15° to 30° W.; those along the east limb dip from 5° to 10° E. The minor axis is approximately 40 miles long, extending across the dome in an east-west direction, passing through Rock Springs and a point 3 miles north of Black Buttes. Several small anticlines and synclines are developed upon the main dome, but for the most part they are...

Seite 13 - ... of such a size as to yield at least 5 pounds of coal per foot of thickness of coal bed — that is, 5 pounds for a bed 1 foot thick, 10 pounds for a bed 2 feet thick, 20 pounds for a bed 4 feet thick, etc. •1. All material encountered in such a cut should be included in the sample, except partings or binders more than three-eighths inch in thickness and lenses or concretions of sulphur or other impurities greater than 2 inches in maximum diameter and one-half inch in thickness.
Seite 13 - In order to make determinations of the loosely held moisture more uniform and definite, a special drying oven has been designed and introduced into the laboratory. In this oven samples of several pounds weight can be dried in a gentle current of air, raised from 10° to 20° above the temperature of the laboratory. In this way the coal is...
Seite 151 - By E. WESLEY SHAW. INTRODUCTION. The Glenrock coal field, in the east-central part of Wyoming, comprises the southern end of a great area of coal-bearing rocks, the Fort Union region, which covers the northeastern part of Wyoming, most of the eastern half of Montana, and the western half of North Dakota. (See fig. 4.) The principal towns in this field are Casper .', Flo. 4.— Index map showing location of Glenrock coal field, Wyoming.
Seite 65 - Careful observations, however, disclose a slight and con-' sistent dip of 1° to 3° in a northeasterly direction on the southwest margin of the field, but this dip flattens toward the mountains and turns northward at their eastern extremity. On the northeast side of the mountains near the head of Fattig Creek, the rocks dip slightly toward the southwest, and near Roundup the dip in this direction is very pronounced. Thus the structure of the field so far as surveyed suggests a gentle syncline plunging...
