  1. Mine Gases What am I?

  2. What Am I? • I am found in high places. • I am odorless • I am tasteless • I am colorless • I am extremely explosive • I have a SG of 0.0695 • I am Hydrogen

  3. What am I? • I am found everywhere (not hi or low) • I am an asphyxiant in concentrations • I am colorless • I am odorless • I am tasteless • I am slightly water soluble • My SG is 0.967 • I make up 78% of our atmosphere • I am Nitrogen

  4. What am I? • I am odorless • I am found near roofs and backs • I am tasteless • I am colorless • I am somewhat water soluble • I am responsible for many, many miners deaths • I will explode when concentrated between 5% and 15% • I am Methane

  5. What Am I? • I am water soluble • I am found everywhere (not hi or low) • I am odorless, colorless and tasteless • I am used in industry and medicine • My SG is 1.105 • I keep fires burning • Without me you die! • I am Oxygen

  6. What am I? • I have no color or taste • I prefer to stay low in mine air • I smell of petroleum • I am used in industry and at home • I assist you feeding your family many weekends • I am explosive between 2% and 9% • My SG is 1.563 • I am Propane

  7. What am I? • I am colorless and tasteless • I smell pretty nasty • I am slightly lighter than mine air • I am highly explosive • I am one of the most used gasses in industry • My SG is 0.9107 • I am Acetylene

  8. What am I? • I am told I taste sweet • I am very explosive • I am water soluble • I will kill you rapidly when concentrated • I have no color • I smell rotten • My SG is 1.19 • I will explode between 4% and 45% • I am Hydrogen Sulfide

  9. What am I? • I don’t smell • I have no taste or color • I am explosive • I am found everywhere in a mine (not hi or low) • Your blood likes me 300 times more than Oxygen • I will kill you and your whole family • I am a product of incomplete combustion • My explosive range is 12.5% to 74% • My SG is 0.967 • I am Carbon Monoxide

  10. What am I? • I am reddish brown in color • I smell of fumes • I will kill you and your fellow miners • I am not explosive • I am found waist level and lower in mines • I am a product of blasting and diesel engines • My SG is 1.59 • I am Nitrogen Dioxide

  11. What am I? • I have no color • I will kill miners when they breath me • I taste acidic • I like to dissolve myself in water and come out when stirred up • I smell like a match • I tend to stay very low in the mine air • My SG is 2.264 • I am Sulfur Dioxide

  12. What am I? • I am odorless and colorless • I am told I taste acidic in high concentrations • I have killed many miners • I like to stay low in mine air • I am a product of complete combustion • I am inherent in some rock strata • I am given off by old timber • I am a product of oxidation • Breathing me a little will increase your breathing rate • Breathing more of me will make you pant • My SG is 1.529 • I am Carbon Dioxide
