Question....
Does anyone know the reasons why past coal production was so low? A continuos miner is supposed to be capable of producing 25,000 tons a month. They have been mining the Apache seam for many months. Is it equipment issues, personel issues, safety issues, permit issues, or something else? With money in place, continous miners on site, workers on site, what is the problem? Or is this the inflection point for a large spike in production when the second miner starts in Apache and startup of the Blue seam? Three functioning miners is supposed to support 75,000 tons a month production. We better start hitting some production targets.
