1910 Anthracite Output Tops Previously Peak Years in Pennsylvania

Pennsylvania anthracite production reached 75,493,346 long tons in 1910, up 3,058,297 from 1909, with value rising to 160,275,302 dollars. Prices averaged 2.12 per ton as minor culm and waste recovery cut losses, while labor accidents climbed slightly to 601 fatalities and 1,050 injuries. California coal output dropped sharply as Stone Canyon operations declined, shifting to Amador and Riverside lignite. Oil production in California rose to 65–70 million barrels, offsetting coal use.
