This paper discusses the advent of modern fine coal jigs in the United States. Traditionally in coal processing, jigs have been used to clean the coarse coal fraction, the +3/8'' or +1/4'' material. Today its place has moved from the coarse to the intermediate coal circuit, the 3/8'' x 100 mesh. The most economical coarse coal circuit to build and operate is a heavy media bath circuit. A table is provided in this paper which summarizes the cost per raw coal-ton processed for a coarse coal jig circuit.
