The invisible plume: Why coal mine methane is worth looking at

Colorado Independent: If you know what to look for, you can spot the old well pads in the hills above West Elk Mine. The reclaimed patches of land, carefully restored to their original contours, stand out only as a lighter green against the dark, dense forest. The trees, the Forest Service promises, will grow back later. Otherwise, to the casual hiker, this tract of Gunnison National Forest offers few hints of the massive coal mine hundreds of feet below. The landscape is lush, the sky clear blue. Only the low thrum...

Australia: Decision on coal mine 'defies reason'

Age: The decision on Sunday to approve mining leases for Queensland's Carmichael coal mine is akin to "evil", according to one of the world's foremost marine scientists. "It defies reason," said Dr Charlie Veron, former chief scientist at the Australian Institute of Marine Science. "I think there is no single action that could be as harmful to the Great Barrier Reef as the Carmichael coal mine." The $21.7 billion project, which involves mine, rail and port facilities, would allow Indian multinational...

Arch Coal Halts a Proposed Coal Mine Project in Montana

Hill: Mining giant Arch Coal on Thursday said it will suspend its work on securing a permit for a new mine in southeastern Montana. In a statement, the company blamed capital constraints, a weak coal market and uncertainty in the permitting process for suspending its proposed Otter Creek Mine project. The company secured the lease rights to 8,300 acres of minerals in Otter Creek in 2010. The permitting process to begin mining, the company said, has taken longer than anticipated, and further deterioration...
