Rock River Basin (NTS 95D/11 and 14)

Coal was discovered in the Rock River Basin by Sulpetro Minerals Ltd. In July 1980, and five holes sunk to delimit coal occurrences in September 1981. Samples were collected from all five holes for palynologic analysis and the undisrupted core from three holes examined in the field to determine the depositional setting of the coal and provide a basis for evaluation of the coal potential of this area.
