The Mine has seen the evolution of mining practices from pit ponies to dragline operations over almost 100 years of operation. Throughout the history of mining in the Collinsville Coal Fields, a variety of processes and practices have been undertaken. Environmental Management is focused on addressing these environmental legacies. We implement effective land and water management to address potential issues with acid mine drainage and spontaneous combustion through:• Appropriatematerialdumping,cappingand
remediation strategies to seal acidic/pyritic material from air and water
• Appropriatelandformdesignanddevelopmentanddrainage for the mine life to reduce water ingress through acidic material
