Geological Problems Reported:[edit | edit source]

One horseback was traced for over 1,000 ft, and consisted of a hard micaceous sandstone. Small faults or slips were noted, as well as horsebacks. The slips made poor roof conditions. The roof was 6 ft of gray shale, full of cleavage planes. The shale was very slabby and laminated and fell in sheets. The coal had a shale parting that thickened northeastward. The parting was more carbonaceous in some areas, but where the parting was more clay-like, the coal was better quality. The parting weathered to a white powder and, when disposed of on the floor of the mine and dampened, became a very sticky mud. Pyrite was present as balls and masses, which were easily separable from the coal.
