Horseshoe Basin Coal Field Could Prove Profitable
W Hufford of Superior Coal Mining Co. says the Horseshoe basin coal area 15 miles west of the Idaho Wyoming line and 12 miles west of Driggs can be developed into a commercial mine with proper management. Geology shows lava flows over coal measures and faults like the Darby thrust. four coal beds exceed three feet thick. Surface improvements and a spur line have aided development, Brown Bear slope is best advanced, coal quality is good with potential for gas and coke uses, but a market survey is advised before further investment.
