represent a true estimate of value qualified slightly on the conservative side." The classic and, in theory, the only accepted method of valuing coal mines or coal reserves is the capitalization of future income. The following is from Valuation of Coal Mining Properties in the United States, Report of the Engineer''s Advisory Valuation

Surface and underground mining}, author = {Not Available}, abstractNote = {The handbook provides a convenient costing procedure based on the summation of the costs for unit processes required in any particular mining or mineral processing operation.

It also introduces a new econometric model for estimating the operating cost and capital cost of a coalmining project. The total operating cost and capital cost of mining are calculated by using the proposed econometric model and verified by comparing the outputs with CostMine data and Sherpa software outputs for a surface coal mine.

Underground mining is generally more expensive than surface mining. Cash mining cost for higherranked coal at Appalachia Basins is much higher at above 60/short tons, based on Alpha Natural ...

The study uses data from completed coal mining projects from selected coalproducing countries. Three formulae are developed and presented for estimating capital costs of underground bord and pillar, surface shovel and truck, and dragline operations. Keywords coal mining, capital costs, parametric cost .

We have years of firsthand underground mine engineering and operating experience in most countries and across multiple commodities using all common mining methods. As a global SRK group, we have specialist underground mining expertise to provide solutions for the unique features of each project.

The total cost of mining includes the direct mining cost and social cost. The social costs include the impacts to the environment and socioeconomic systems. According to the estimates for the complete costs of coal, coal mining only accounts for 22% of total social (external or "hidden") costs of coal (Epstein, Buonocore et al., 2011).

Coal prices at surface mines are generally lower than prices at underground mines. In locations where coal beds are thick and near the surface, such as in Wyoming, mining costs and coal prices tend to be lower than in locations where the beds are thinner and deeper, such as in Appalachia.

COAL MINING 1 Underground M: Since 1900, accidents have killed over 100,000 miners; over 200,000 have died from black lung disease. E: These deaths and illnesses are re!ected in wages and workers'' comp, costs considered

Coal, primarily from underground mines east of the Mississippi was the nation''s primary fuel source until the early 1950s. Surface (strip) and mountaintop removal mining overtook underground mines in the 1970s. In 2000, the majority of coal was produced west of the Mississippi.

Coal mining Coal mining Underground mining: In underground coal mining, the working environment is completely enclosed by the geologic medium, which consists of the coal seam and the overlying and underlying strata. Access to the coal seam is gained by suitable openings from the surface, and a network of roadways driven in the seam then facilitates the installation of service facilities ...
