Section 25-9-84 Coursing of air. (a) Two available openings to the surface are required from
each seam or stratum of coal worked. In drift or slope mines, such openings provided after
August 12, 1949, must be separated by not less than 40 feet of natural strata, and all crosscuts
between them shall be closed with stoppings of fireproof material. In shaft mines, such openings
provided after August 12, 1949, must be separated by not less than 200 feet of natural strata.
The second opening may be made through an adjoining mine. Until these provisions are met,
not over five men in a drift, 10 men in a slope, and 20 men in a shaft shall work in the mine
at one time, and no additional development shall be permitted until the connection is made
to the second opening. In mines wherein final pillar robbing operations necessitate closing
