Re: ATH in administration

Mike, the press release says that the banks called in their loans with immediate effect but this has probably come from falling coal prices and rising fuel (derv) costs.

ATH in administration

Unfortunate news today that ATH Resources have been placed into administration. Hopefully the official receivers will be able to save jobs and keep their operations going.

Re: Komatsu 475

Mike you are right. There was a 475 in Northern Ireland (I think) that went out to Greece. No others in the UK. Blackwell's have a 375 but not sure if there are any others?

Re: UK Coal Lodge House Cat D9T

Great pics Luke!

The berms are left high for health and safety. With the trucks reversing up to them they have less chance of going over the tip edge.
