Deposit Type

  • Sedimentary


Summary:

Coal is mined from the Pittsburgh Number 8 coal seam.

The mining conditions in the Pittsburgh No. 8 seam in general are good and great for longwall mining. The seam height averages 6 ft and the mines routinely encounter a 1 ft split [binder] near the roof with a rider seam that gives the entries an additional 2 feet of headroom.


Mining Methods

  • Longwall
  • Continuous


Summary:

The mine accesses the Pittsburgh No. 8 coal seam by two slopes and four portals: the Fish Creek Portal located near the supply and production slopes, the Blake's Ridge Portal, the Grapevine Portal, and the Cameron Portal. The Cameron Portal is used by the majority of miners.

The mine typically works three shifts per day, six days per week. The average coal production is 34,677 raw tons per day, and the average mining height is 78 inches. Coal is mined by four continuous mining machine sections and two longwall sections. Coal is transported from the working sections to the surface via conveyor belt. Battery, trolley, and diesel powered rail-mounted vehicles are used to transport supplies and mine personnel.
