Day 4: Coal Mine


Today, we went on a field trip to a coal mine in MS. One of our objectives is to learn about the skills our students need to possess in order to obtain employment in a mine. The experience was amazing. I was expecting the coal to be located much deeper in the ground. Apparently the depositional events in this area of the US were not very deep over the last 55 millions of years. I'm going to bring our earth science classes here!
