Geological Problems Reported
The 1884 Coal Report stated that the shaft was made too small and only 20 bushels at a time could be hoisted out (this was one of the first mines in the Staunton area). They were troubled by gob fires, which the Coal Report linked to bad mining system and bad ventilating by the company that opened the mine; gas issued from the old works.
Production
Company | Mine Name | Date | Production (tons) |
Panhorst and Voge | Staunton | 1871-1878 This shaft was shown on the Atlas of Macoupin County, 1875 and labeled Panhorst and Voge. According to Staunton in Illinois and the Staunton Times (February 26, 1897), the shaft was sunk in February of 1871, and was later used as an air shaft, after Henry Voge sank another shaft. Ownership from 1875 to 1878 is uncertain. | unknown |
Fuller, Young and Company | Fuller and Young | 1878-1879 | 48,210 Production prior to July 1878 unknown |
