New Hoosier Coal Mine!
« on: March 20, 2014, 09:16:35 AM »

Happened to be searching the internet the other day for pictures of "open coal seams" and happened to discover a new coal mine that recently opened near Jasonville, IN.  Apparently they are contracted to supply bituminous coal to Indianapolis Power & Light (IPL) for years to come.  The Skelly and Loy mine appraisal indicates the "reasonable price" of the coal to be sold from the mine at $45 to $61 per ton.

Says they have low sulfer ( < 1.5%) bituminous coal throughout the main seam being mined.  8) :thumbup: 

Check the mine pictures and videos out.... pretty cool.

I have no idea whether or not this mine sells to the general public but I will certainly be asking.  8)

Amazing that the current administration hasn't tried to regulate them out of business given their contempt for proven cheap energy sources and the jobs that go with them.
