Synopsis:
This study provides an analysis of the costs to continue mining in the U.S., as well as discussion of supply availability and environmental costs. Understanding these costs requires an understanding of unit operations timing, individual mine plans, productivity and costs; more detailed and thorough measurements of coal reserves; and a better understanding of coal mining's interaction with the surrounding ecosystem.
