Abstract

The Clarion (No. 4A) coal of Vinton, Meigs, Jackson, and Hocking Counties has been mapped according to ash and sulfur (weight percentage) content and seam thickness. The trends of these characteristics basically follow a common pattern of coincidental highs and lows (i.e., where sulfur content is greatest, the ash content and seam thickness are also relatively high). Interpretations of these results and appropriate background material to comprehend them have been included. The intended consequence is the advancement of a model capable of predicting sulfur distribution and content in coal.
