Add to basketPaperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book tells the fascinating story of the discovery and development of the East Kent Coalfield. It traces the decades-long journey of scientists and entrepreneurs seeking to uncover the potential wealth hidden beneath the chalk cliffs of southeastern England. The author delves into the scientific debates and conflicting opinions that surrounded this ambitious endeavor. The discovery of the Pas de Calais coalfield across the Channel sparked initial interest, prompting geologists like Godwin-Austen to hypothesize that similar deposits might exist under the English coast. The book details the numerous committees formed, the numerous borings undertaken, and the failures faced in the early stages of this exploration. Through meticulous research, the book illuminates the complex interplay of science, finance, politics, and individual personalities that shaped the quest for Kent coal. It reveals how the discovery of the East Kent Coalfield was ultimately a result of chance, linked to the Channel Tunnel project and the subsequent construction of a boring that ultimately revealed the presence of valuable coal seams. The book provides a captivating historical account of a pivotal moment in the development of Englandââ â¢s industrial landscape and serves as a reminder of the enduring power of human ingenuity and perseverance in the face of adversity. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
