Vapor exhaust from Pinnacle Mine jets clears underground fire risk
A West Virginia spokesman said vapor from two jet engines, used to create an inert atmosphere, is quelling ignited underground flames at PinnOak Resources Pinnacle Mine. The operation, begun Oct 1, aims to extinguish explosions from Sept 1 and Sept 7. The plan is part of broader regional briefs including PSC permit drives for heavy haulers, Mine Health regulations, impoundment information rollout, Shrine Oyster Dinner notices, and state coal commissions actions.
