Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elementary Chemistry for Coal-Mining Students For many years I have delivered both popular and more or less systematic courses of lectures to deputies and other workers in coal mines, students who have little or no knowledge of chemistry but are keenly desirous of learning something of the subject which may be useful to them in their daily occupation. The ordinary text-book of chemistry does not meet their requirements, for it contains much that it is unnecessary for them to study, and much that it is desirable for them to know is not to be found in it. The present work has been prepared with the object of meeting the wants of these as well as of other students of coal-mining. It is really a compilation of those parts of chemistry, pure and applied, that are cognate to the coal-mining industry, and does not pretend to be a text-book of chemistry. Its arrangement is based on the plan I have adopted in my lectures, namely, to divide the subject into two parts. The first part includes the description of those elements that enter into the composition of coal, among the compounds of which are found all the gases and most of the principal substances met with in coal mines. In this part a certain amount of necessary chemical theory is introduced. The first nine chapters are devoted to this part and in them special attention has been given to such subjects as irrespirable and extinctive atmospheres, the occurrence and detection of poisonous gases and their action on the animal system, the safety lamp and its use in the detection of fire-damp, the hygrometer and its use. The second part is included in the next four chapters and treats of the chemistry of coal and coke, the coking process, by-products and their recovery, explosives, explosions of gases and coal dust.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elementary Chemistry for Coal-Mining Students N o alteration in the composition of an iron bar takes place when it is encircled by a current of electricity, though a certain change takes place which enables it to attract nails. The bar remains iron whether it is able to attract the nails or not, and Whatever change has taken place is not a change in composi tion. It is evident from this examination that bodies can undergo two kinds of change: one which does not involve an alteration in the composition of the body, and another which does.

Download or read book The Pit Sinkers of Northumberland and Durham written by Peter Ford Mason and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2012-08-01 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shaft sinking for the extraction of minerals has taken place for centuries, and for much of this time, coal mining was carried out in the North East of England. Various methods of pit sinking developed from the use of shallow bell pits to the excavation of deep shafts, in order to access rich seams of coal and other minerals for sale in rapidly urbanising areas such as London. In the close mining communities of Northumberland and Durham, those who dug the initial shafts, the sinkers themselves, were regarded as the mining elite. This book not only tells the story of mining itself, through upheaval and technological developments, but also focuses on the lives of miners and their families above ground in the emerging pit towns adn villages; places where religion adn miners' galas were an integral part of life. Peter Ford Mason, descended from three generations of County Durham miners, has written a fascinating investigation onto miming society, which makes a compelling read for anyone interested in the social history of the North East or the mining industry as a whole.
