Mine Plan Designed to accommodate 1 LW, 4 CM Sections

Mains oriented at N18E (A:18) or S18W (A:198) Gates oriented at S72E (A:108) or N72W (A:288)

Considerations placing panels: overlying cities, horizontal stresses(N70E), low cover, railroad.

Designed similar to other mines operating in Pittsburgh 8 seam.
