Nashville Quadrangle
Mining in the Nashville Quadrangle
Attempts at mining began early in this quadrangle. The 1868 Worthen report mentions two shaft attempts, but neither produced coal at the time. The shaft attempted near Nashville by Mr. Huegeli likely later became the Nashville Mine (mine index 0226). Production for the Nashville Mine began before the Coal Reports reported production in 1881. Mining continued here until 1939 when the mine closed. This mine was plagued by a number of geologic problems.
