At Iron Senergy, our operation incorporates a number of different aspects during our process. From mining to processing, storage to transportation – each of our facilities plays a vital role.
The Cumberland #9 portal is a centralized hub for the operation, which includes the miner’s bathhouse, shaft elevator, training center, and communication within the company. It helps to streamline processes, enhance collaboration, and provide employees with easy access to essential resources.
The Prep Plant is a core foundation of our operation, transforming raw coal into a valuable resource. Through our advanced process, the prep plant cleans, sorts, and sizes the coal, ensuring it meets the quality standards of our customers. Our Prep Plant facility also contains our raw coal stockpiles, warehouse and clean coal loadout.
Iron Senergy also owns and operates our own 17-mile short line railway that transports clean coal from our Preparation Plant in Kirby, PA to Alicia Harbor, located in Alicia, PA.
As of 2024, the Cumberland Mine Railroad was the longest privately owned railroad in the United States.
Once completing the process at the Prep Plant, all of Iron Senergy’s coal is transported 17 miles from the Prep Plant to Alicia Harbor, where it is loaded onto barges along the Monongahela River. This then allows our team to then deliver to customers locally or the ability to offload to our Labelle Facility.
Also located along the Monongahela River is our LaBelle facility, which provides robust ground storage and the ability to load both Class I railroads. Conveniently located, LaBelle offers access to all east coast export terminals.
Cumberland Mine utilizes both room & pillar and longwall mining in our operation. At the 4th quarter of 2023, several infrastructure enhancements were completed, allowing our underground team to successfully move into the West Greene District, extending the life of the mine for the next 30 years.
One of the most significant investments to Cumberland Mine is the construction of Coal Refuse Disposal Area #3. The new disposal facility makes full use of the plate-and-frame press that the plant already has in place. This new facility helps demonstrate our commitment to being more environmentally and socially responsible.
