Geological Problems Reported
The east-central part of the mine left an area unmined that was labeled “slips, bad roof, water”, and an area in the central portion of the mine was also unmined and labeled “slips, bad roof”. A few rooms along the western side of the mine had roof falls, and a few rooms in the southeastern part of the mine had water. Southern expansion was prohibited by a “fault” shown on the mine map. (Sometimes faults on mine maps are not structural faults but other geologic features, such as poor roof or contemporaneous channels.)
