LONDON (AFX) - Coal International PLC said progress across its West
Virginian properties "has continued apace" with improvements in operating
performance at the Crooked Run surface mine and the Silo Mains underground mine.
The company said the rehabilitation of Maple Coal's first underground
operation, the Eagle No. 1 mine, has been started, with the first production
scheduled for the second quarter of 2007.
Coal International, which conducts its US mining operations through Atlantic
Development and Capital (ADC), said ADC' s unit Atlantic Leaseco acquired new
leases covering a further 2,290 acres of coal lands contiguous to the Gauley
Eagle property. [/color] [/quote]
