Hi Robby, this is Deerhunter. Would you please tell me where Dodd's Coal is located? I would need the state, county, town, maybe a tel. number? Thanks for your post.

Below these Coal Test results are for the Stoker Coal @ the Tipple

Phoenix wrote:My company is considering very strongly to sell bagged Bituminous coal for the residential stove market. We can also provide coal in bulk. The general specifications are:
BTU: 13,000/lb, Ash: 8%, Sulfur: 0.50%, Moisture: 8%, Volatiles: 32%, Size: 11/2 x 3/8 inch (other sizes are available)
Our company is located in Oklahoma. We plan to sell 20 and 40 pound bags in one ton lots on pallets.

My question to the forum is do you see a market for Bituminous coal in the residential stove market? In addition, what are the preferred sizes of coal and size of bags?

Thanks,
Phoenix

I think it's a good idea Phoenix. I see people buying these wood/coal add on furnaces and they recomend soft coal as the fuel. More and more people burning soft chunk coal in open fireplaces, wood stoves, ect. Deerhunter

There is a place called Coalburg Coal. located in Winifred, W. Va. This is in Kanawa County. They have nice burning bituminous at a fair price. They are nice folks to deal with. I dont remember the phone number but I will try to get it. Deerhunter.

Hi, this is deerhunter. Would you mind telling us where the local bituminous coal suppliers are in your area. County, tonship, street address or a tel. number would be greatly apreciated. Thank you, Deerhunter

Deerhunter-I'm in North/Central New Jersey as well (Northwest Hunterdon County) and I'm probably going to end up hauling a trailer out to Punxsutawney to get a couple of tons of bituminous as I just bought an Englander 28-3500 add-on furnace. Where did you hear about the Orchard mine? I looked up Good Spring, PA but it looks like it's right smack in the middle of anthracite country to me-unless they have mines elsewhere and truck in bituminous to sell there.

Hi Badfish, I live in Burlington Co., N.J. I read about the Orchard mine on here someplace. It would be Anthricite country. Bituminous coal is hard to find in our area. I heard there is a place in Tioga Co., Pa. that is selling Bituminous picked up at the mine for 60.00 per ton. I am waiting for some contact info. I will post it as soon as I recieve it. Punxutawney is quite a drive from northwest Hunterdon Co.,N.J. ?

Sorry Dearhunter, I was away. I'm afraid I live to far away from you. Alberta, Canada. Way to far to haul coal. The mines web site http://www.doddscoalmine.com/about_us/
