Summary:
The Roman Project property is located directly south of the existing Trend Mine. Coal seams of economic interest are located in the Gates and Gething Formations as at the Trend Mine. The structure of the Roman Project coal seams consists of a large syncline the axis of which strikes northwest–southeast. The axis of the syncline plunges to the northwest. Figures 3 and 4 are cross-sections through the property area which show the structure of the syncline. Typically the limbs of the syncline are dipping at angles between 40 and 65°.
