This is a polygon coverage of the structure contours of the Calico sequence boundary in the Kaiparowits Plateau, southern Utah. Sequence boundary elevations are based on 166 drill sites. The Calico sequence boundary occurs from 50-100 ft below the base of the John Henry Member, therefore an inferred elevation of the sequence boundary was used at numerous locations along the outcrop where the John Henry Member was mapped. The outside polygon defines the base of the coal-bearing Calico and A-sequences of the Straight Cliffs Formation east of 112 degrees of longitude. The northern boundary is delineated by the Paunsaugunt fault and volcanic rocks of Tertiary age.

This is a polygon coverage of the outcrop of the John Henry Member of the Straight Cliffs Formation east of 112 degrees of longitude in the Kaiparowits Plateau, southern Utah. This polygon was used to represent the areas underlain by the Calico Sequence boundary. This polygon was also used as the "outside" clipping polygon for several of the data layers including the overburden and isopach coverages. The northern boundary is delineated by the Paunsaugunt fault and volcanic rocks of Tertiary age.

This is a coverage that shows areas in the Kaiparowits Plateau where geologic conditions in the Calico and A-sequences are more favorable for current underground mining technology (Hettinger and other, chap. T). This coverage contains numerous attributes of information. It was compiled by computing the geometric intersection of nine polygon coverages using the ARC/INFO UNION command. This coverage is characterized as being a GUIDE TO WHERE THE MORE FAVORABLE COAL AREAS ARE LIKELY TO BE for current underground mining technology: areas where coal beds in the Calico and A-sequences are greater than 3.5 feet thick, less than 3,000 feet deep, and inclined by less than 12 degrees, as described in Hettinger and others,...

These are shapefiles and polygon coverages that contain numerous attributes of information on coal in the Calico and A-sequences of the Upper Cretaceous Straight Cliffs Formation in the Kaiparowits Plateau study area in southern Utah. These layers were derived from a "union" process of combining numerous polygon coverages using the Environmental Systems Research Institute, Inc. (ESRI) Arc/Info UNION command, and finally calculating coal tonnage in INFO. Net coal thickness values are from 209 data points and represent all coal beds that are more than 1 foot thick. The outside polygon defines the base of the coal-bearing Calico and A-sequences east of 112 degrees of longitude. The northern boundary is delineated by...

This is a polygon coverage that represents areas underlain by the coal-bearing Calico and A-sequences of the Straight Cliffs Formation east of 112 degrees of longitude. It differentiates between areas that contain the entire coal-bearing interval and areas where the coal-bearing strata are partially eroded. The outermost polygon defines the base of the Calico and A-sequences. The inner polygon shows where the complete coal-bearing interval is preserved. The area between the outer and inner polygon shows where the coal-bearing rocks are partially eroded. The northern boundary is delineated by the Paunsaugunt fault and volcanic rocks of Tertiary age.

This is a polygon coverage of isopachs of the combined thickness of the Calico and A-sequences in the Kaiparowits Plateau study area. The outside polygon defines the base of the John Henry Member of the Straight Cliffs Formation east of 112 degrees of longitude. The polygon includes areas where the Calico and A-sequences have been partially eroded. The northern boundary is delineated by the Paunsaugunt fault and volcanic rocks of Tertiary age.
