While other plans of coal miningl have
been proposed, writes II. M. Chance in an
article on 1.-THE Anthracite Coal Industry
in the current number of the Engineering
Magazine, the old method OF working by
parallel breasts separated by regular pillar
of coal is still almost universally used,
That great waste results from this method
is admitted by all. In working thin beds
the pillars oan be removed, or at least q
large portion of the coal they contain can
be taken ont. after the rooms are worked to
the limit, but this can be done to very linn
tied extent in thick seams. by adopting
notifications of the long wall system, or
combined long wall and r~eflling systems. a
much larger percentage OF coal in the
thicker seams could be recovered, but such
systems would perhaps increase the cost
per ton, and thew require Il large prelimi-
nary outlay in dsadwork before mining on
a large scale can be commenced. Conssrv-
atiye estimates place the quantity of coal
lost by being left in the ground as pillars
at 40 per cent of the quantity originally
present.
The cost of mining and preparing coal
for she market varies widely between diff
feIeht oollieries. When the coal is wet.
and contains much bony coal or slate, the
cost of preparation ia largely increased.
Perhaps $l.40 to $3.50 per ton may fairly
be taken as the average range in cost of
production and preparation. This is ex-
elusive Of ROYALTY, which averages 80 to 40
cents per ton. Enormous quantities OF
water are pumped from some of the mines,
several raising between 1000, 900 II 2,Go0,-
900 gallons daily.
In addition TO coal Lost in pillars left to
support the roof, Il considerable portion is
lost by becoming mixed with the COB or
refuse left in the mine; some is reduced to
dust by blasting and handling, still more
waste is made by crushing, screening and
handling in the breaker. and the rejected
slate has more or less coal adhering to it
which ia lost in the waste dump. Less than
As per cent OF the coal contained in the
thicker beds is sent to market. the balance
