Notes
- ↑ The main shaft was partitioned into air and hoist compartments.
- ↑ This air shaft was under construction and only 5 feet down, as shown on the not-final source map. This air shaft construction may not have been completed before the mine closed.
- ↑ ISGS mine notes indicate that Roanoke Wilmington Coal Corporation was associated with the opening of this mine, but no production was reported under that name.
- ↑ Idle 1937
- ↑ Production after map date.
