From the Preface:

This directory is an update and revision of Resource Series 29 published in 1990. The purpose of the publication is to provide insight into the Colorado coal industry. The directory includes geologic, production and location data on coal mines that were operating in 1996 and two planned mines in the permitting stage. The map contains coal production, distribution, and electric generation information for 1995.

Additional information was obtained by contacting individual coal mine and power plant operators via mail, telephone and fax. The accompanying map locates mines and lists them by county and coal mine name.
