What reading level is Coal Mining book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Here the day -level A, by which the coal is worked, will also serve as a drain. But on the western side of the valley in Fig. 1 the workings would soon fill with water. To drain them a drainage-tunnel (adit or sough) is driven in from the bottom of the valley, with the slightest possible upward inclination, till 120 COAL MINING [OH. It meets the coal, in which a heading can then be driven level-course till it intersects the slant driven in the coal from the outcrop. The coal can then be worked ...in such a manner that the workings will drain themselves by the adit. Beyond the adit, however, the limit of free or natural drainage is reached ; and any further workings toward the dip (' dip- workings ') are impossible without resort to artificial means of removing the water. Only in districts trenched by deep valleys that cut through the coals, such as the Forest of Dene and the Pennant country of South Wales, can such methods be applied ; and in most of such districts the limit of free drainage has long been passed, and the water has all to be raised by shafts.
