Geological Problems Reported
The source map shows one room in the eastern part of the mine was caved. This room was near the slope entrance to the mine and probably did not have enough rock above the coal to make a stable roof. Mining was extended north and west of this area, probably as a result of this roof fall.
Production
Company | Mine Name | Date | Production (tons) |
Silas B. Moore | Moore No. 3 | 1928-1938 | 15,626Production was not listed in the Coal Reports for mines producing less than 1,000 tons per year. |
Silas B. Moore | Moore No. 3 | 1938-1940 | 3,735Production after map date |
