Quinsam placed the mine on care and maintenance at the end of May 2019. The company subsequently made an assignment into bankruptcy. The receiver and manager Bowra Group Inc. offered the property and assets for sale in 2020.

During 2021 Quinsam Coal Mine (the Site) was operated in a status of care and maintenance by the Bowra Group Inc., in its capacity as Receiver and Manager of Quinsam Coal Corporation (the Receiver). The Receiver operated the Site under the regulations of the Mines Act permit, C-172 and the Environmental Management Act permit, PE:7008.

The Receiver undertook a sales process for the assets, undertaking and properties of Quinsam Coal Corporation from December 2019 to November 17, 2021, when the process was officially closed without a buyer. The future of the site has not been determined, however; with the closure of the sales process there will be no buyer to re start operations at the Site.

Mining Methods

  • Continuous
  • Room-and-pillar


Summary:

The underground coal mining at Quinsam uses room-and-pillar methods. This mining method uses mechanized, remote control continuous mining machines to develop a series of underground roadways in the coal leaving a series of pillars of coal. The continuous miners cut and load the coal into shuttle cars, which haul and empty the coal onto a belt conveyor system leading to a coal stockpile on the surface. From there, coal is transported to the coal preparation plant.
