Lab 9! West Virginia Coal Tonnage Dot Density Map

After hour upon hour of placing dots, my lab is finally complete! I find it a bit funny that although we've been given the reigns to utilize the power of color, I chose to go in the opposite direction. I did so however trying to augment the theme of my map since the phenomena being mapped is coal. I also tried to include elements of mining around the map. A known way of coal being mined in West Virginia is strip mining. The title and other elements of text around the map are supposed to illustrate strip mining. Everything around them has been stripped or dug up, and only the text is left, just like strip mining with coal!
