The coal produced at this mine has a reported caloric value of 8,300 Btu/lb.
Summary:
A combination of scrapers, dozers, front end loaders, shovels and haul trucks are used for overburden removal and coal extraction.
Approximately 165 feet of overburden are removed with explosives, dozers, electric shovels and loaders to expose the coal. Overburden haulage is accomplished with end-dump trucks.
The coal is hauled to an in-pit truck dump, where it is sized and then conveyed to a 12,000-ton intermediate silo.
