CONSOL Thermal Holdings owns a 25% undivided interest in the Pennsylvania Mining Complex. CONSOL Thermal Holdings entered into an operating agreement with CPCC and Conrhein under which CONSOL Thermal Holdings is named as operator and assumes management and control over the day-to-day operations of the Pennsylvania Mining Complex for the life of the mines. We are managed by the directors and executive officers of our general partner. As a result, the directors and executive officers of our general partner have the ultimate responsibility for managing and conducting all of our and our subsidiaries’ operations, including with respect to CONSOL Thermal Holdings’ rights and obligations under the operating agreement.
Following the separation, CONSOL Energy owns a 75% undivided interest in the Pennsylvania Mining Complex.
Summary:
The Pennsylvania mining complex, which includes the Bailey Mine, the Enlow Fork Mine and the Harvey Mine, has extensive high-quality coal reserves. The Pittsburgh No. 8 Coal Seam is a large contiguous formation of uniform, high-Btu thermal coal.
Summary:
The design of the Pennsylvania mining complex is optimized to produce large quantities of coal on a cost-efficient basis. All of mines utilize longwall mining, which is a highly automated underground mining technique that produces large volumes of coal at lower costs compared to other underground mining methods. Generally the company operate five longwalls and 15-17 continuous mining sections at the Pennsylvania mining complex.
The Harvey mine uses approximately four continuous mining units to develop the mains and gate roads for its longwall panels. The longwall has a panel width (or face length) of approximately 1,500 feet, a panel length of approximately 15,000 feet and a seam height of approximately 6.9 feet. The Harvey mine’s existing infrastructure, including its bottom development, slope belt and material handling system, has the capacity to add one incremental permanent longwall mining system with additional mine development and capital investment.
