Graph showing subsidence factors (a = S /t) versus mining panel width to depth <br />ratios (W /d) for the West Elk longwall mine (squares), 1972 to 1976 Somerset room - and - pillar <br />mine (circles), and the York Canyon, New Mexico longwall mine (diamonds), along with the <br />average National Coal Board (NCB) longwall curve. Topographic effects on subsidence factors <br />for the York Canyon, New Mexico longwall mining area (upper point of measurement was in a <br />deep draw; middle point was on an isolated ridge; lower point is maximum for area). <br />
