Geological Problems Reported
Two areas of faulting were noted on the source map, one in NW NE NW 3-T10N-R2W and the other in W ½ NW NW 2-T10N-R2W. Top coal (18 to 24 inches) was left to support the black shale roof. The coal had a few small slips that had little effect on mining; the floor clay also had slips. The underclay heaved in the northern part of the mine.
