Five coal basins in the Rocky Mountain Foreland of the western United States--San Juan, Greater Green River, Piceance, Powder River, and Raton--contain, by virtue of their tremendous coal tonnage, 522 Tcf (14.7 Tm3) coalbed gas resources, or 77 percent of the nation's total of 675 Tcf (19.1

Estimation of coal resources in Texas Gulf Coast, Ohio northern Appalachian, and Wyoming Powder River Basins: a comparison of statistical approaches Estimation of coal resources in Texas Gulf Coast, Ohio northern Appalachian, and Wyoming Powder River Basins: a comparison of statistical approaches 1983

Official estimates of United States coal resources published during the past 15 years vary from less than 1.5 to 3.5 trillion metric tons (1.7 to 3.9 trillion short tons). These differences imply that a high degree of uncertainty exists in resource assessment.
