Unlike the models of generic situations this representation of coal strata was specific to a particular surveyed location in England showing several thin,and mostly hidden,coal seams. Thomas Sopwith (1803 - 1879) was an eminent geologist and civil engineer who pioneered methods of representing geological features. This set of wooden models was designed to represent geological situations with faults,folds,inclines and strata that were particularly relevant to the mining industry | |
