York. A system of working coal. First, the main levels are started on both sides of the shaft and carried toward the boundary. Second, the bord gates are worked in pairs to the rise and continued as far as the boundary, or to within a short distance of a range of upper levels and other bord gates. Lastly, the whole of the pillars and remaining coal are worked out downhill to within a few yards of the levels, and ultimately, all the coalbetween the levels is removed. (references)
