Excerpt from Coal: Part One, Coals of the Monongahela Formation or Upper Productive Coal Measures, Part Two, Chemical Analyses and Calorific Tests of the Clarion, Lower Kittanning, Middle Kittanning and Upper Freeport Coals
A feature of this part of the report is the new assignment made the Pomeroy seam. Heretofore that has always been regarded as the Pittsburg. But recent studies have demonstrated that the coal in question lies above the Pittsburg seam and is the equivalent of the Redstone of Pennsylvania and West Virginia. Credit for this determination belongs very largely to Mr. D. D. Condit.
Part Two consists of analyses and calorific tests of four seams of the Allegheny Formation or Lower Productive Coal Measures. These are the Clarion. Lower Kittanning, Middle Kittanning and Upper Freeport coals. Accompanying the results will be found sections showing the thickness and structure of the seam where sampled.
In the chapter by Professor Lord, Interpretation of the Chemical and Physical Tests on Coal, the value of coal as shown by its chemical. Analysis and the effects of the different constituents upon its fuel value are discussed in some detail, as are also the total and available heating values of coals.

Excerpt from Coal: Part One, Coals of the Monongahela Formation or Upper Productive Coal Measures, Part Two, Chemical Analyses and Calorific Tests of the Clarion, Lower Kittanning, Middle Kittanning and Upper Freeport Coals
The coal has long been mined along the river front for local use. The fuel is hauled directly from these hills to the iron and steel mills in the valley, thus reducing to a minimum the cost of fuel.
Section 1 shows the coal in the mine which supplies the Actua Standard mill with fuel, the location being at the north end of Bridge port. Occasional streaks of pyrites are found in the lower part of the seam, and one thin smut band was noted. Much the same may be said of the Breast coal. The Bearing in coal is not rejected. The Draw slate overlying the coal is reported to vary from a foot or more in thickness to almost nothing.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book presents an analysis of two different coal seams mined in Ohio in the early 20th century: the Pittsburg and Pomeroy seams. The author provides not only a chemical analysis and caloric test of samples of these two seams, but also details regarding the history and geology of each seam. The data demonstrates the wide variation that can be expected within different parts of a given coal seam, such as the presence or absence of partings or rider seams. The author provides historical context for the exploitation of these seams in Ohio, explaining how mining techniques evolved over time and how the coal industry developed in the region. The book concludes by discussing the significance of these seams to the economy and infrastructure of Ohio, highlighting their role in fueling the state's industrial growth. Whether you're a geologist, historian, or simply someone with an interest in the history of Ohio's natural resources, this book offers a wealth of valuable information.
