About the Company:
Atlantic Coal owns and operates the Stockton Colliery which comprises an
opencast anthracite mine and an adjacent anthracite washing plant. The mine is
an established non-union surface mine encompassing circa 900 land acres in the
Hazle Creek Valley, Pennsylvania and has an estimated proven reserve of 4
million tons. Mining of raw coal is from the high quality mammoth seam, while
washing and sizing takes place in the 150 ton per hour coal preparation plant. J
T Boyd Company, the Company's Competent Person, estimated that there is over 10
years of mine life from existing reserves at an average production rate of
400,000 Run of Mine ('ROM') tons per annum. Based on historic production levels,
the mine is capable of and is projected to produce approximately 450,000 ROM
tons of coal per year. Mining operations are conducted by the use of hydraulic
excavators. Uncovered raw coal is then loaded into 100 ton trucks for delivery
to the onsite preparation plant. As each section of the mine is developed,
mining progresses from the northern and southern faces into the basin. This
yields a constant flow of raw coal to the preparation plant.
