Carter Roag Coal Company has more than 100 employees and mines 400,000 tons of coal annually.
The company operates one deep mine – Pleasant Hill – located near Mill Creek, W.Va. Pleasant Hill is the only operating underground mine in Randolph County. Carter Roag’s coal preparation facility, the Star Bridge Plant near Helvetia, W.Va., has been upgraded to a 500-ton-per-hour operation.
In addition, Carter Roag plans to open a large underground mine and associated preparation and coal-handling facility at Roaring Creek, near Colton, W.Va., in 2011 or 2012.
In 2004, United Coal Company, Carter Roag’s parent company, purchased permitted reserves in Randolph and Upshur counties in West Virginia. The property was formerly operated as Carter Roag Coal Company and produced mid- to high-volatile metallurgical Sewell coal for several decades.
