Dip of the main seam, east-10°-south at 35°; coal of medium 

 hardness. Elevation above the plain 1^000 feet. It may be the same 

 as the Tikak coal. A small quantity was raised from this outcrop in 

 1874-75. The a' W coal, and upper half of the 4' 0" is similar to that 

 in the main seam. The lower part of the 4' 0" is very hard and diffi- 

 cult to break in site with a pick.
