1t has been propo!ed to introduce caustic
lime into bore holes in coal and other
minerals, and to bring it into contact, in a
confined condition, with water, so that by
the expansion OF the lime in becoming
slaked, and by the pressure Of the steam
generated, sufficient power will be developed
TO effect the breaking down of the mineral.
The Introduction OF this method in connec.
ton with coal mining is said to be accom-.
panied by the twO-fold advantage Of avoiding
the danger OF explosion OF tire-damn and OF
obtaining the coal in much larger blocks thsn
would be the case with the ordinary blasting
operation.
