Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Coal Mine Surveying The rapid depletion of the primitive forests of America by fires and axe in recent years has raised the price of wood so rapidly that the mining industry is becoming alarmed as to its future supply of the big timber of which it has hitherto been such a prodigal consumer. Economy in the use of timber has been essential to commercial success in European mining for several generations and it was to the Old World that our operators went for their first systems of timberless mining. The use of steel and masonry for the support of mine shafts and tunnels has long been practised in Europe not only because of dear timber but because most mines there are considered to be long-term investments rather than temporary speculations. As this replacement of timber supports by other material involves no new mining system and has been thoroughly covered by other writers, it will not be described in this treatise. Though most of the mining methods considered consume some timber, their economy in that respect is so marked as to justify the use of a title Mining without Timber.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Coal and the Coal Mines IN treatingof so large a theme in so small a compass it is impossible to do more than make an outline sketch. It has been the aim of the author to give reliable information free from minute details and technicalities. That information has been, for the most part, gathered through personal experience in_ithe mines. Literature of this special subject is very meagre, and the author is unable to acknowledge any real indebtedness to more than half a dozen volumes. First among these is the valuable treatise on Coal Mining, by H. M. Chance of the Pennsylvania Geological Survey. Other volumes from which the author has derived considerable information are the State geological reports of Pennsylvania, the mine in.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Study of Mine Surveying Methods and Their Applications to Mining Engineering These notes, problems and observations have been compiled in order to present in useful form for the student much that is today scattered among various texts on surveying and much from practical work that is not included in the average series of lectures on mine surveying. The surveying. Of lode and placer claims has been omitted, as the present methods of conducting such work are very differ ent from practice in underground work, and recent legislation has caused considerable confusion in all mineral surveys. Mine surveying is really one part of mining engineering. The purpose of these notes is to show how mine surveying enters into all the other phases of mining engineering and what meth ods are best adapted to each kind of work.

The use Of the Magnetic needle is herein strongly defended, as being more generally applicable, as a rule, to mining surveying than any other system that can be suggested. But the author takes the liberty of sub mitting that the magnetic meridian is not a satisfactory base of working: and a description will be found herein Of an improved circumferentor, by the use of which the 'hue Meridian may be made the regular working base, instead of the Magnetic Meridian; and by which the error occasioned by the constantly varying declination of the latter may be effectually guarded against.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mineral Surveyor Valuer's Complete Guide: Comprising a Treatise on Improved Mining Surveying and the Valuation of Mining Properties With New Traverse Tables The Traverse Tables herewith submitted to the public were computed some years ago by the author, to supply a need he had often felt in his professional duties, when engaged in laying out works for the connection of different and distant operations in collieries and mines: viz. a Set of Tables by the use of which the results of some extensive surveys may be computed, and acted upon, with greater accuracy and confidence than can be sometimes attained by the ordinary methods of plotting. It occurred to the author that if a survey were made with great care and accuracy, the results should be capable of computation with absolute certainty; and that thus much cost in mining operations would occasionally be saved, by the drivages meeting properly, as intended: for where the cost of driving is large, in hard ground for instance, frequently costing 3, or 4, or more per yard, an error even of 5 yards may thus become an expensive matter; and frequently also there will be no inconsiderable expense in endeavouring to "straighten" a crooked driving, which has resulted from incorrect "points" having been given.
