This book was released on 2016-08-31 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Specific Gravity Studies of Illinois Coal The Object of this bulletin is to present the results of a study of (1) the effect of moisture upon the specific gravity of coal, and (2) the methods of determining the specific gravity of coal. The commercial aspects of the problem are discussed, and values are given for the specific gravity of coal from many of the mining districts of the State of Illinois. The specific gravity of bright and dull coal is also considered. The investigation was carried on under the direction of Professor H. H. Stock of the University of Illinois, who suggested the problem and whose advice and criticism were of great value. Experiments were conducted in the laboratories of the Department of Mining Engineering of the University of Illinois, and field trips were made to the Vermilion county coal field, where samples of coal were collected from a number of mines. Other samples were obtained from various sources. The author is indebted to Professor E. A. Holbrook of the Department of Mining Engineering of the University of Illinois for assistance in securing sam ples of coal and for valuable suggestions and criticisms during the prog ress of the work; and also to Professor S. W. Parr of the Department of Chemistry of the University of Illinois, and Mr. Fred H. Kay, of the Illinois State Geological Survey, for advice.

Download or read book Thirty Fifth Annual Coal Report of Illinois written by J. F. Morris and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-09-10 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Thirty-Fifth Annual Coal Report of Illinois: State Mining Board, 1916 The year ended June 30, 1916, broke all records of the coal mining industry of Illinois. The total output in short tons is a gain of tons over 1914, which, up to the present year, had the greatest production in the history of the industry in this State. The increased production over last year is tons, or more than per cent. This increase is due to the fact that there were 24 more mines in Operation, 312 more men employed and that the working time was increased from 158 to 163 days. The average daily earnings of miners, where hand mining was done exclusively, is while last, year this class of employees earned a daily wage of An increase of five cents a day for the machine men and loaders in exclusive machine mines will be seen. The average earnings for the year of miners in hand mines is a gain over last year of Machine men and loaders in exclusive machine mines, earned an average of more than last year. During the year 165 men lost their lives and were injured, so as to lose 30 or more days time, while attending to their duties in and about the mines. It is very gratifying to be able to state that the mining industry is being placed on a higher plane, the mines are undergoing improvements along modern and scientific lines, wash-houses for the men erected, train ing in rescue and first aid work maintained and accelerated, and the work of the State Inspectors is more efficient and scientific.
