Lignite Miners Win Higher Wages Trigger Price Rise
Operators grant a twenty five percent wage increase to about 160 miners in the Mouse River and Ded Laces valley area. To cover higher production costs the Alora Nave mine raises coal price twenty five cents per ton at the mines. The miners cite rising living costs and higher prices for powder carbides and tools, warning of potential coal shortages without outside imports.
