Not illustrated. 1914 Excerpt: ...by a heavy mantle of soil. The high hills along the north border of the township are almost covered with large residual blocks of quartzitic material, a bed of which, apparently in place, forms the top of Spring Butte in sec. 4. A lignite bed, which is believed to be the Haynes bed, underlies the higher land in the northern part of the township, but its outcrop is for the most part concealed. On the southwest side of Spring Butte, in sec. 4 (location 21), the bed has been mined to some extent for local use, but the bottom of the pit is now under water. At this place 4 feet 5 inches of lignite is exposed. On the other side of Spring Butte, also in sec. 4, is the Spring Butte strip pit (location 22) in which 4 feet of lignite is exposed above the water in the bottom of the pit. The measurements obtained in strip pits in T. 131 N., R. 92 W. indicate that the bed is thinner toward the east. Near the top of Spring Butte, in sec. 4 (location 23), a bed of lignite about 2 feet thick is exposed about 150 feet above the Haynes bed. A bed of lignite less than 2 feet thick was found at a corresponding altitude on a high butte near the north line of sec. 1. T. 131 N., B. 02 W. T. 131 N., R. 92 W., is an area of very broad fertile valleys separated by high rocky ridges. The greater part of the township is drained by small streams flowing toward the north and east into Timber Creek, which crosses its northeastern corner. The main divide extends across the southern part of the township, but two high spurs extend into the northwest and east-central parts. All the rocks belong to the Fort Union formation, but there are very few natural exposures. At least two lignite beds outcrop in the township, but the data are so meager that correlations of the various exposures and well...
