Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book provides a detailed analysis of coal mining practices in the early 20th century, focusing specifically on the Choctaw and Chickasaw Indian lands in Oklahoma. The author, a mining engineer, examines the prevailing mining methods used at the time, highlighting the significant waste of resources and the inherent safety hazards associated with these practices. The book meticulously documents the inefficiencies of the existing room-and-pillar system and explores alternative approaches, such as the panel long-wall system, which promises increased coal recovery and improved working conditions for miners. This book offers a fascinating glimpse into the early industrialization of coal mining and its impact on both the environment and the lives of those who worked in the mines. The authorââ â¢s insightful recommendations for optimizing coal extraction while minimizing waste and enhancing safety serve as a valuable historical record of the industry's evolving practices and the challenges faced by miners and operators alike in this crucial sector.
