And it's sulfur rich low quality coal for export...not even the good quality.
There's a small coal mine that sells to steam train hobby clubs, ok..niche but I can't get mad about that.
But this is don't understand..coal mining often leaves big holes, and it stopped being profitable at scale in NL / Belgaum etc. decades ago. So Wft?
