I ran into a friend of mine in the Mount Carmel, Pa. that had a few buckets of really nice clean chestnut coal in his truck.
He gave me a 5 gallon bucket and I was pretty impressed with it. It burned really nice with a pink ash.
Wondered if anybody had his phone # or knows where it came from. Would like to pick up 5 ton or so.

Anyone familiar with Mike's Coal Sales?
