County: Saline
Quadrangle: Harrisburg
County Coal Data: Saline

Unlocated: No
MSHA ID:

Mine Index Number: 0128

Company Name: O’Gara Coal Company
Mine Name: O’Gara No. 14 Mine
Start Date: 1906 End Date: February 1923
Type of Mine: Underground
Total acres shown: 531The boundary between O’Gara No. 14 Mine and Harrisburg No. 4 Mine (mine index 3319) could not be distinguished, and the acreage shown is for both mines. Harrisburg No. 4 Mine also mined some pillars in O’Gara No. 14.
Acres after map date: General Area of mining acres shown:

Harrisburg No. 2 Mine (mine index 3320) surface-mined the southern part of the underground works.

Shaft, Slope, Drift or Tipple Location(s)

Geological Problems Reported

Rolls and faults were present throughout the mine, and some interfered with mining. A large fault prevented westward expansion of the mine. The roof was generally good, with a 4-inch layer of “draw slate”. The coal contained pyrite lenses in the upper portion, and calcite or gypsum fracture fillings throughout the seam. The thicker coal was in the southern part of the mine. The source map also shows that the coal was split by a shale band on the western side of the northern part of the mine (NE SW 30-T9S-R6E).
