Notes
- ↑ Some ISGS maps have designated this mine “New Hickory Hill Mine” to distinguish this mine from Logan Highway Coal Company’s Hickory Hill Mine (mine index 648), which closed in 1941.
- ↑ The mine changed ownership in 1943 but continued to operate under the same name.
- ↑ Production after map date
- ↑ The mined area shown on the accompanying map is the approximate size expected for the reported production. This suggests that the mine outline is complete.
