The trend toward full mechanization of the coal industry, as we know it today, began during a post-war period of sustained heavy demand for coal, which pre-vailed up to the time that depression struck the nation with full force
Get PriceCoal, being relatively soft, could be dug out with a steel pick, drilled with hand-cranked spike, breast and post drills (above). Later, electric drills were utilized to drill holes for blasting, as seen in the 1950s photo on the lower right, before mechanized coal mining replaced this hand work.
Get PriceThe First Waterloo seam commenced production in 1957 and was the last to be worked. It was the first face to be fully mechanized to include power loading, previously the machine cut coal was loaded by hand. Conveyors to carry coal along the trunk roads to the pit bottom, where it was loaded into tubs for surfacing were introduced in the 1950's.
