Abstract

Prairie Mines & Royalty Ltd. produces over 12 million tonnes annually of thermal coal for TransAlta’s Sundance and Keephills power stations from the Highvale Mine. This opencast mine is next to a lake and is surrounded by cottages and farms, which means that blast vibrations and air overpressure have to be kept to a minimum.
