I'm shopping for anthracite, and a local supplier is currently carrying bulk pea from 'Coal Contractors, Inc.' The Mammoth vein was mentioned as the source. Does anyone have any opinions on 'Coal Contractors' anthracite?

Are these guys affiliated with Atlantic Coal and the Stockton mine?

Yes.

Why not just buy some of their coal and see how you like it?

Right now it looks like from a different source (that is closer to me) I can actually get bulk Blaschak pea delivered for less $$'s if I make my purchase during their 10% off sale on this coming Saturday 5/11. The delivery distance penalty being imposed by the provider of Coal Contractors anthracite is seriously hurting their chances. I would only consider it if it was clearly hands down superior to Blaschak.
