Summary:

Golden Eagle will be a relatively small mine. While it potentially could produce more, the company intends to keep the mine’s annual output at about 300,000 to 350,000 tons, and it will be used to supplement existing regional coal supply contracts.

To access Golden Eagle’s roughly 240 acres of privately owned coal reserves, Knight Hawk will be allowed to use a portion of the 19,701-acre Pyramid State Park near Pinckneyville in Perry County as a staging area. Once mining is completed, the company plans to donate the land, valued in excess of $1 million, to the state.

In addition to its traditional surface mining practices, the company's Highwall Miner is being utilized.
