Production Start...
In February 2020, Hallador Energy Company decided to permanently close the Carlisle Mine and to focus their efforts on lower cost operations at Oaktown.

Carlisle mine had been idled since 2015.
In July 2018, production was re-started at the Carlisle mine. [09/30/2018, Form10-Q, p. 10,21]

Deposit Type

  • Sedimentary


Summary:

The coal is accessed with a slope to a depth of 340'. It is mined in the Indiana Coal V seam which is highly volatile bituminous coal and is the most economic in Indiana. The coal thickness in the project area is 4' to 7'.


Mining Methods

  • Continuous
  • Room-and-pillar


Summary:

The employees at the Carlisle Mine operate 4 underground mining units using the room and pillar approach—one of the safest and most ecologically friendly methods for extracting coal. Our No. 5 coal seam is 350-440 feet deep and it is accessed through a 2,400-foot driveable, dual-use slope.

The coal is accessed with a slope to a depth of 340'. The coal is mined in the Indiana Coal V seam which is highly volatile bituminous coal and is the most economic in Indiana. The Indiana V seam has been extensively mined by underground and surface methods in the general area. The coal thickness in the project area is 4' to 7'. Production at Carlisle has been significantly curtailed until market conditions improve.

Room and pillar mining is a non-subsidence plan for a mine, preserving the precious farmland above. It is among the safest and one of the most ecologically-friendly approaches to mining coal today, creating a non-subsidence environment (no movement of land) and maintaining clean water standards.

As the name indicates, large pillars of coal (40 feet wide) are left standing to help support the roof of the mine—more than half of the coal remains intact as supporting pillars to maintain the integrity of the surface land. The end result is a grid of open space (rooms) cleared by a continuous miner machine and separated by pillars. Once the coal is cleared and placed on a conveyor belt to our state-of the art surface wash plant, roof bolters enter the ........
