The field notes indicate the coal dipped to the south (4 feet drop in 600 horizontal feet) and then rose again. Water problems were noted in the southernmost portion of the mine, and the roof had rolls or horsebacks at that location that may have been the source of the water. Mining advance was halted on the eastern side of the mine by a “rock wall” that may have been a sandstone channel, because water entered from the roof at this location. The roof was draw slate. There were concretions present in the roof, and they were most common where the draw slate was absent. The coal thickness varied throughout the mine. Many pyrite lenses and veinlets existed in the coal, as well as calcite facings. Floor heaving was noted during mining, but may not have hindered mining to a great extent.
