A new methodology for assessing available coal resources was developed and tested in a cooperative study between the U.S. Geological Survey and the Kentucky Geological Survey. Pertinent geologic, mining, land use, and technological data were collected, assimilated, and plotted. The national Coal Resources Data System (NCRDS) was used as the repository for data, and its geographic information system software was applied to these data to eliminate restricted coal and quantify that which is available for mining. The methodology is described and the results of the pilot study conducted on the Matewan 7.5-minute quadrangle, Kentucky are presented.
