But little fibrous coal, and no pyrites apparent, COMPOSITION OF THESE CRANK'S CREEK COALS.--(Air Dried.) No. 2881 is a remarkably good, pure coal, which would yield very good coke. No. 2880, a weathered sample, probably does not fairly represent the character of the unweathered coal deeper in the bed; yet it is better than the general average of coals in quality, leaving only 6.40 per cent, of ash.
