Default Proposed coal mine near confluence of Ram Rivers.

Folks,

Just west of Rough Creek an abandoned Shell Oil well drilling site road has even reopened to allow access for operations of Ram River Coal.

Ram River has a web site.

It would appear like both sides of the Ram's are to be mined.

Here are some things from the site:

Ram coal

The Ram River Property, as defined in the Technical Report, Ram River Coal, Property, Alberta by Norwest in 2014, is composed of the North and South blocks. The North Block bifurcates from the South Block, with the North Block, measuring approximately 15 km in length and 3.5 km in width and with the South Block measuring, approximately 14 km at its longest point and 2.7 km at its widest point.

Note:
This coal deposit has been the subject of previous attempts to become commercial. In the early '70's the access trail along the north Ram was built for drilling. According to the crew, everywhere they stuck a drill there was coal.

Will it happen now - who knows.
