The Matewan quadrangle, Pike County, Kentucky, was selected for a cooperative coal-resource pilot study by the US Geological Survey and the Kentucky Geological Survey. The purpose of the study was to determine the coal resources actually available for mining. After calculating original and remaining resources, coal that would be lost because of cultural, environmental, and technological restrictions was quantified.
