Notes
- ↑ An additional 31 acres are shown as a general area of mining near the shafts. This area was probably mined. An additional 100 acres, probably on the east side of the mine, was probably mined; the area shown is not sufficient for the tonnage produced, and the source maps show indications that additional acreage may have been mined to the east.
