“Tn the upper part of the seam are large lenses of clay ironstone.
Where present, they do not replace the coal, which maintains its thickness.
Analyses by benches, are given in a table that follows. In all benches, the
coal is of medium volatile bituminous rank. In the basal, 0-6-foot bench
the coal has good caking properties.”
