Vast Areas Of
Coal ia Routt.

For many years tho existence Of
large measures Of coal In Routt ooun-
ty, Colorado, has been known to tho
settlers in that vast region, 30 rich in
its diversified resources, 81 which
gold, silver, copper iron, onyx and
other minerals form part. But il
the statements of Professor f. v.
Hayden in a recent communication to
the Denver Post concerning the an
thracite deposits in that county may
be taken as authority, all other min
eral resources, SO far as present dis
covery shows, ID not to he compared
with the value Of available coal
Routt county, the writer says, is
probably better supplied with coal
than any other portion Of the state,
extending across the whole country a
distance Of nearly sixty miles, and
more than that In width. At some
points, however, basalt or volcanic
rock shows up, in which vicinity the
coal has been burned out, as the vol
canic action shows strong evidence OF
being later period than the coal de-
posits. These volcanic fires have,
where the heat has not been too great,
probably coked the coal deposits, and
ages of time, together with great
pressure has compacted this coked
matter into genuine anthracite. So
far as is at present known there ID
but one place in the county where
anthracite is found, namely, in the
Elk Head range, about twenty miles
from Steamboat Springs, in nearly
northwest course. Here the earth
has been upheaved and two veins -ex-
posed, probably 100 feet apart.
These veins average about five aud
six fee. each in thickness. The coal
in these veins is very hard and aver
ages well with eastern coal in quality.
Las. fall J. W. Hughes & Co., pur-
chased several tons for use in base
burner stove in their 50xS0-toot
store at Steamboat Springs, The re-
suit was that they kept the room COM
Portable with it even after an expos
ure OF nine years to weather that
would almost have disintegrated n
granite boulder. Every condition
for the formation of the same charac-
ter of fuel Is found in q dozen differ
ent portions OF the county. AS to
the general quality OF the coal of all
varieties in this county, it is very
safe statement to make that we have
no poor coal. On first opening a
bank before o depth is reached the
product burns freely, but Stacks easi-
ly. As greater depth is reached this
tendency to slack disappears; very
little sulphur IS found in any Of it,
and the tendency to slack is only con-
splcuous by its almost entire absence.
The general character of the coal
here is Ignite, although of far bet
ter quality than is found on the cast
ern slope, semi-cokiny and consider
able of it semi-coked. This is a
peculiar statement, but can only he
qualified by saying that q majority of
it is neither anthracite camel nor bi-
luminous, it must certainly De as
stated or new name coined to fit
the occasion. Lying within this coal
measure we find an extensive oil
field. This basin is within one mile
Of the eastern edge Of the field and
is being fast located bv men interest
cd in such matters.-Ores and Metals.
