No. 1 was from section 7, Trimble township, Nos. 2 and 3 were from 
the ‘“ Dugway,” in Trimble, and No. 4 from Laurel Fork un csc same 
township. | 
Some of the ores are excellent. No. is quite rich in iron, with only 
traces of sulphur and phosphorus. Taking the four analyses together it 
will be scen that the average phosphoric acid is only 0.21 per cent., which 
is quite low for Coal Measure ores. The average per centage of iron is 
34.19. It is to be expected that the ores under impervious cover will be 
carbonates exclusively, and, consequently, a little less rich in iron. 
There are several horizons of ore above that last given in the hills 
bordering lower Sunday Creck, from which much ore could be obtained 
were furnaces established in the vicinity to create a demand for it. In 
some places there is an ore above the thin coal of the seam first above the 
Bayley’s Run seam. A sample of this ore, from the Moody land, in 
Trimble township, was analyzed by Prof. Wormley:

The excessive quantity of silica forbids the usefulness of this ore.
