This section of the PROC MIXED documentation should help.  Scroll down to table 79.18 under the TYPE= option.  The syntax

 

    type=sp(pow)(x);

 

will return two covariance parameters.  The residual variance in your table is the sigma term in the documentation.  The SP(POW) entry in the table is the rho in the documentation.  The Dij is the distance between two observations in terms of the variables you list in parentheses after the SP(POW) ... the X in the statement above.
