Book excerpt: Excerpt from Coal Mining IN the following pages an attempt has been made to place before the general reader a slight sketch of the principles of Coal Mining. Not to take too narrow a view of the subject, in the earlier sections I have outlined the evolution of the industry from its primitive beginnings, and have indicated here and there some of the far-reaching effects it has had on domestic and mechanical affairs. I have also introduced such geological considerations as have a. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Principles and Practice of Coal Mining The science of mining so largely consists of practical applications of geology, mechanics, physics, chemistry, and other branches of natural knowledge, that it has proved difficult in many cases to decide what acquaintance with these subjects on the part of the reader to take for granted. The author is hopeful that sufficient information has been given to make the book self-explanatory, but students are urged to study these collateral sciences as fully as circum stances permit.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Coal-Regions of America: Their Topography, Geology, and Development For the benefit of those who, have but little knowledge of geology, some general information, applicable to all the coal regions, is given in the Appendix on the, origin and place among the rocks of coal-beds. This, as well as Chapter VI. On the characteristics of coal-seams, should properly be read by non-geological readers before the accounts of the coal-regions. A chapter on the conditions of success in the coal-trade, one On the combustion of coal, and one on the iron-ores of the coal measures, with the latest statistics of the coal mined in the United States, and in foreign countries, are also added at the close of the volume. Some of these statistics are later than those given in the text. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Geology of Coal and Coal-Mining This book is the first of a series of works on economic geology undertaken by experienced geologists. Other books will shortly follow, dealing with the geology of metalliferous mining, quarrying, water-supply, and precious stones. The economic aspect of geology is yearly receiving more attention in our great educational centres, and the books of this series are designed in the first place for students of economic geology. It is believed, however, that they will be found useful to the student of general geology, and also to surveyors and others who are concerned with the practical applications of the science. Dr. Gibson has, as the result of many years' professional work among the coal-bearing rocks of this country and of South Africa, rendered himself peculiarly qualified to write upon the subject treated in the present work.

This book was released on 2017-10-28 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Geology and Coal Resources of the Henryetta Mining District, Okmulgee County, Oklahoma The mapped area of the Henryetta mining district includes about 168 square miles in Okmulgee County in the east-central part of Oklahoma. The rocks in this district consist of sandstone, silty shale, and shale, and are divided into the Senora formation and the overlying Calvin sandstone of Pennsylvanian age. Coal occurs in the Senora formation in two minable beds: the Morris bed and the overlying Henryetta bed. The Morris bed averages about 16 inches in thick ness. Mining of this bed has been restricted for the most part to strip mining in the northeastern section of the mapped area, where the strata have a gentle westward dip of about 1 degree. The Henryetta coal bed averages about 25 to 36 inches in thickness and has been mined extensively to the east, west, and south of the north-trending henryetta-schulter anticline, the only important structural feature in the district. Although this anticline is locally faulted, displacements of the faults are small. At present, the large operating coal mines are on the western side of the anticline. The coal in the Henryetta and Morris beds is of high volatile A and B bituminous ranks. Coal from the Henryetta bed was being used in 1952 in blends for the manufacture of coke at the Sheffield steel plant at Houston, Tex.

Download or read book Coal written by Elwood S. Moore and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-09 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Coal: Its Properties, Analysis, Classification, Geology, Extraction, Uses and Distribution This work has been prepared in an attempt to satisfy the demand for a handy volume on coal. There already exists a very valuable literature on this important subject, but it is so voluminous and scattered that much of it is not accessible to the average reader. Many of our older works need revision because of new discoveries in the study of coal, such, for example, as the practical application of the microscope in the determination of its physical character and the discovery of more refined chemical processes for determining its chemical properties. The great advances in extracting coal from the earth by mechanical means and in the cleaning and coking of the products of the mine also make it necessary to bring new processes to the attention of the public. There are so many different phases in the discussion of a subject so broad as this that details regarding many matters must be omitted in a one-volume work, and readers desiring detailed descriptions of machines or complicated processes must consult works dealing with those matters alone. While many topics are fully dealt with in this text, such as the properties, the origin, the uses and the general distribution of coal, some others as mining machinery, and details of distribution and character of local coal deposits can be treated only in works of several volumes. It is hoped, however, that the data presented will serve, for ready reference, those who make frequent use of a work of this type. I wish to take this opportunity of expressing my appreciation to those who have so generously contributed to this work. My thanks are specially due to Dr. H. Ries of Cornell University, at whose suggestion the preparation of this text was undertaken, for suggestions and the use of photographs and cuts.
