Pocahontas Coal District Reports Low Week End November 29
Production in the Pocahontas field fell to 544 447 tons in the last week of November as car shortages and other factors curbed output. The week ending Nov 29 yielded 27 459 tons, with Thanksgiving Day shutdowns and a favorable start to the following period. Operators face higher payrolls and potential suspensions without financial relief while coke production is curtailed to shift supply to markets in need.
