Geological Problems Reported
The source map shows that the mine broke into an old slope at the southern end of the mine. The old slope may have been Fred Bones (mine index 4070). Most of the rooms and entries on the source map have “fall” written in them. This would indicate very poor roof conditions, probably from little bedrock being present above the coal.
