Geological Problems Reported
Faults of the Wabash Valley Fault Zone, some with large displacements, were present throughout the mine. One major fault trending NNE had 80 to 90 feet of displacement. Bad top was reported along the fault line. Roof falls occurred, with the longest leg of each in the north-south direction. Some falls were as much as 40 feet high. Concretions were found in the black shale above the coal. The coal had occasional shale lenses and pyrite nodules. Calcite was abundant on the cleats in the coal, while pyrite often formed “goat beards” near the middle of the seam.
