Geological Problems Reported
Gas may have been a problem; one man was killed by an explosion. The roof was a gray sandy shale that was soft and full of slips. Top coal was generally left to protect and support the roof; this top coal was recovered on retreat. The seam was very hilly. Grades of 8% were common. A northwest-southeast trending cutout was present at the shaft bottom. A fault with 27 feet of throw and a 10 foot gouge zone was present. There were very few impurities in the seam, only a few faces of calcite were observed. The underclay did not heave much.
