Notes

↑ The symbol on the source map indicates the hoist shaft may have been combined with an air shaft.
↑ The source map had the abandoned date scrawled across the mine outline. Although no production was listed in the 1909-1910 fiscal year Coal Report, some production may have occurred after the production listed above. Alternatively, the mine may have been idled but economic conditions did not warrant re-opening the mine, and the production shown may be the total removed from the mine before closure.
