About |
Cobalt Coal Corp is a metallurgical coal acquisition and development company focusing on the Appalachian region of the USA. Metallurgical coal, also known as 'Coking Coal' is used in the production of steel, as opposed to 'Thermal' or 'Steam' coal which is burned in power plants for its energy content. The company is focused on the acquisition and development of known, high grade metallurgical coal reserves to produce near term cash flow.
Cobalt currently has three coal projects which it owns and operates; The Westchester Coal Mine, The Westchester Expansion, and The Fox Property. All three of these projects contain high grade metallurgical coal with several drill holes and outcrop samples confirming the presence, and quality of coal.
Cobalt has a head office in Calgary, Alberta and a field office in Welch, West Virginia where Cobalt’s full time operating staff is already in place. The Company's management team has extensive experience in founding, growing and selling both public and private energy and resource companies. Cobalt Coal Corp is uniquely positioned for success.
Cobalt Coal's Westchester Coal Mine will be the start of the upcoming reality television series named "Coal" to air in March 2011 on Spike TV.
