several beds are present. while In
others only one or two have been
found. hut no single bed has been
traced continuously for more than o
few miles. So little prospecting has
been done that an unqualified state

known one or more workable beds are
present throughout the field here con
sidcred. The thickness Of the coal
ranges from maximum Of twenty

under the Uintah BASIN. and. indeed.
Uintah coal region In the name most
generally applied by biologists 20 the
area. The geological survey has eN-
amined outcroppings Of coal In CORE
spending geological formations In the
Vernal coal field in Uintah county and
In the Blncktail Mountain field in Du-
chesne county. where G, T. Lupton
has estimated nearly two thousand
million tons OF coal occur In work
able seams within three thousand feet
of the surface in DuChesne county
The economic importance Of the lat
ter field lies In the fact that IL Is close

through the uintnh Basin. The field
occurs In wooded territory, sparsey
settled and az present FAR from rail
road The wood n found easier a.
procure for domestic fuel locally, and
the result b. that 40 Tar the field has

II has been common that such a scam

that all the coal la such seam should
be mined while Il is still accessible.
Waste also occurs. he says. when COM
