Additional Information
1Includes reported and estimated values. Some operations reporting sales did not report a value for those sales. A countywide- or statewide-average price per ton was calculated for each industrial mineral commodity based on sales for which the value was reported. A countywide average price per ton was calculated for coal based on (1) sales for which the value was reported and (2) method of production. These calculated averages were used to estimate the value of the sales for which the actual values were not reported.
