Notes

  1. Production indicates approximately 44 acres were mined. Those 44 acres are probably included within the mine shown on the accompanying map as Syndicate Mine (mine index 4607).
  2. The older mine, Sato, operating 1889-1899, utilized a shaft for their production. The location of that shaft is unknown, but may be included in the outline for Syndicate Coal Mining Company (mine index 4607), for which no production is known.
