Notes
- ↑ The outline shown on the accompanying map shows the White Ash Mine contiguous to the White Ash Mine (mine index 150) and Carterville No. 6 Mine (mine index 323). The boundaries between these mines may be approximate; the area shown is approximately what would have been mined by the combined production of the three mines. In addition, a general area of mining designates an area that could have been mined.
- ↑ The Coal Section mine notes indicate that Lumaghi Brothers owned or operated Slogo Coal Company. The mine was also known under several names, such as Black Briar No. 1 Mine, White Ash Mine, and Goddard Mine.
- ↑ Reported abandoned in 1913, reopened in 1917; idle 1925
