Welcome JH to this great forum , last September I got 2.5 tons of stove from a stock pile and I'm kinda disappointed In the amount of rock thats in it at least once a week I'm fighting with a rock jam and Its getting old . I'm forced to screen the coal before I fill the indoor bin trying to pull all the rock I can but some still makes It Into the stove, not a lot of fines but rock.
