Knoxville-based coal producer Xinergy Ltd., has announced that its Clearco preparation plant and rail loading facility at its South Fork mine in Greenbier County, West Virginia, was completed on time and within budget.
South Fork’s mid volume premium metallurgical coal operations are expected to produce an average 50,000 tpm of metallurgical coal during the second half of 2013. This figure represents half of the complex’s anticipated productive capacity.
