This anthracite coal field stretches from Forest City, PA on the northern tip to Shickshinny, PA in the south. There are 2 sub-basins of coal known as the Wyoming Valley (Wilkes-Barre Area) and the Lackawanna Valley (Scranton Area). There is an excellent website NorthernField.info that details a searchable index of Operation Names, Company Names, a Location List, and a Photo Gallery put together by Scranton Native, Frank Adams.
