BRITISH CoA1. FIELDs-The leading mi
ming engineers of the South Wales have been
making some calculations on the probable
amount of coal now in those mines, and the
conclusions at which they have arrived are
very favorable, The aggregate area OF the
coal basis is S66 square miles, and each acre
is estimate to yield 200 TONS The lower
seams to contain the largest quantity OF coal,
and in order to work them, 1t Will be neces-
sary to go down depth of 5000 feet. The
present yield of these mines is about ,0OO,
900 tons annually, and at that rate the basis
will not be exhausted for 1918 years. The
entire consumption of the United Kingdom
could be provided for, from these mines, or
the basis of these calculations for 229 years.
