Notes
- ↑ This area is too large for the production shown. The area may have been mined by others previously (R. and F. No. 3, mine index 4200, was one such) and expanded by Jader Fuel, or the coal was much thinner than shown. Production indicates approximately 60 acres were mined, with both seams at the thickness shown. However, the field notes indicate that the Dekoven Coal was not present (eroded) over some of the pits.
- ↑ G. H. Cady noted a drift mine in July 1925 in this vicinity that was probably later surface-mined by this operator.
