Joe Megna attended a yearly memorial Sunday in Farmington, situated around a tall black memorial built to remember the lost miners. The coal company erected the memorial atop the old mine as part of an agreement with the dead miners' widows, who have lobbied, testified, sued and battled for years for redress from their families' losses …
The transition of the Ruhr region in Germany from a hard coal belt into a knowledge-based economy with a dynamic service sector and state of the art universities over the past 60–80 years has been widely touted as a successful example of how just and fair low carbon energy transitions can unfold. This paper leverages documentary …
In Dudweiler (Saarland) a coal seam fire caught fire around 1668 and is still burning today. Also known is so-called Stinksteinwand (stinking stone wall) in Schwalbenthal on the eastern slope of the Hoher Meibner, where various seams ignites fire centuries ago after lignite coal mining ended; combustion gas continues to reach the …
It's always worth keeping one base as a mining base, and maybe the other for fast travel ease. The second base unlocks at base level 10, and the third at base level 15.
It was sold a year or so later to the Maryland New River Coal Company, whose records show that it produced the most coal in a year at just over 171,000 tons. This was more than likely due to the innovations Ford spent time and money to build into the mine complex. Maryland New River Coal Company continued to operate the mine until …

The coal produced at Logan Mine complex is typically high-volatile (typically 28 percent or greater volatile matter content) bituminous coal. Quality varies with distance from the cropline, so some seams will be shipped into both the thermal and metallurgical markets depending on mining method and ultimate quality.
Visualization of complex geological structures can technically support the accurate prediction and prevention of coal mine disasters. This study proposed a new digital reconstruction method to visualize geological structures based on establishing a virtual model in the digital twin system. This methodology for the digital reconstruction of …
