Geological Problems Reported
A 1907 report in the mine notes indicated that the old works were closed “and said to be mostly caved”. The source map indicated the roof was down in the west part of the mine. The top 4 inches of coal were always left to support the shale roof. The Coal Report of 1884 indicates there was some gas in the workings, but improved ventilation corrected that condition.
