Well, technically it's a National Monument, but ...

Grand Staircase/Escalante does contain the world's largest reserves of low-sulphur coal - now off-limits to mining. That leaves the old X42-(i) buddies the Riadys left holding the next largest reserves in Indonesia. It was one of the biggest payoffs if not THE biggest in history.
