Summary:
Coal is loaded with shovels and front-end loaders from two seams, the Roland and Smith seams, which average 30 and 75 feet in thickness, respectively.
Summary:
Rawhide is a cast blast, dozer-push, and truck and shovel operation. 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.
