Ah, good memories of hot burning UAE coal from the Lyken #2 vein. I'm about to burn my last full 5 gallon bucket mined from UAE tonight. Gave my next to last bucket to Jack this afternoon.

I thought that coal was already on fire? Saves a lot of trouble starting.

I understand it is slow burning.

Lets make sure we show credit where credit is DUE. Newport AGG sold 2b stone with some cinders in it. ALWAYS remember, you get what you pay for. Proper research and education always will win the race.
