BC Rail enters coal mine feasibility with Globaltex and Mitsui
BC Rail joins Globaltex Industries and Mitsui Matsushima in a $1.8 million Willow Creek coal mine feasibility study set to finish by end of 1996. If viable, BC Rail may acquire one third of the mine. 60 to 100 jobs expected. Mine would yield 600,000 tonnes of thermal and semi hard coking coal with staged reclamation and weekly unit trains.
