What reading level is The Industries of New South Wales book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
127 of busy and profitable industry — by the sound of the shale falling down the shoots from the mine, the rising steam from boilers, and smoke from furnaces, the passing to and fro of men intent upon various kinds of employment, and by the ascending and descending of loaded waggons upon a tramway from the valley to the summit of the mountain nearest Mittafi'ong. Such a picture of enterprise, activity, and progress it would not be easy to find anywhere else. About four years ago opei'ations at ...the mine commenced ; about three years ago the fu'st of the plant arrived from England, and the laying of a railway to Mittagong was begun ; about two years ago the first kerosene oil was sent to market, and from that time to this the industry has been progressing every day.
The shale seams in the Company's property are very curiously situated. They are believed to be the same seams as those found and worked in the Hartley district, but they are considerably thinner. The Joadja mine shows first a freestone roof ; next 8 inches of soft coal, which is used as a good gas coal and for other purj)Oses ; then the top shale, which is from 9 to 11 inches in thickness, and is capable of yielding 100 gallons of crude oil to the ton ; next the bottom shale, ranging in thickness from 12 to 16 inches, for export and for gas purposes ; and then 16 inches of hard inferior coal.
