Excerpt from West Virginia Geological Survey: Doddridge and Harrison CountiesSpecial attention is called to the structure map accompanying this report, whereon are shown by means of contour lines the tidal elevation of the Pittsburgh coal horizon at all points of the area. These contour lines, separated by 25 feet in elevation, exhibit at a glance the approximate position of the horizon of this great coal bed, the shape and location of the anticlines and synclines, and the direction of the dip and strike of the rock suala at any point, a knowledge of which is of great value not only for the further development of the oil and' gas pools therein, but. Also for the future mining of the several coal Seams where the latter are of minable thickness, purity and regularity. Special attention is also called to the several areas outlined by the writer as Prospective Oil and Gas Territory, and page references in the Index under this heading by magisterial dis tacts.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
