| Mine Name: | Logan Mine | ||
| Start Date: | 1909 | End Date: | November 1929 |
| Type of Mine: | Underground | ||
| Total acres shown: | 911 Some moderate-sized unmined areas within the mine outline were not included on the accompanying map. The unmined areas were shown on the microfilm source map, which required rather substantial rubber-sheeting to fit to the topographic map and other company map. Because of these registration difficulties, these areas were not digitized or shown on the accompanying map. | ||

Geological Problems Reported
The roof was predominantly black shale, but a light gray shale roof was common in the eastern part of the mine. This gray shale was present as heavy, soft lenses up to 10 feet wide and 30 feet long. The lenses had many slips and this made the gray shale a treacherous roof. Up to 14 inches of top coal was left to support the roof. The coal contained pyrite and calcite veins and fracture fillings, especially near the top of the seam.
