The two rather crude handdrawn sketches of mining methods are badly in need of completely re-doing them by using some professional drawing software. Surely someone in CZ can do that!! [[User:Milton Beychok|Milton Beychok]] 07:24, 23 April 2009 (UTC)

I have made a number of edits as well as adding photos and a new section (on proven coal reserves and coal production). I hope that they have improved this article and I plan to add other images and new sections in the next few weeks. [[User:Milton Beychok|Milton Beychok]] 06:55, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

Analysis

Can I suggest adding some notes about Proximate and Ultimate Analysis? Graham Proud 08:00, 5 May 2008 (CDT)

Need more work

Ciao Anthony,

good start, good material. But we absolutely need to get rid of those "here we need something"-like notes ASAP! I'm going to OK the points right now. Thanks for contributing to Earth Sciences! --Nereo Preto 11:20, 17 October 2007 (CDT)

P.S. - links in external link subpage. --Nereo Preto 02:40, 18 October 2007 (CDT)

Coke?

Is it really called "coke"? Spelled as like "Diet Coke"? --Robert W King 14:10, 31 January 2008 (CST)
