CoalSense Platform
CoalSense organizes permit filings, production data, quality profiles, and logistics information to support screening within retained coverage—it is not sold as a standalone platform.
Platform Overview
Public data on Appalachian coal assets is scattered across state agencies, MSHA filings, and operator disclosures. CoalSense consolidates that information to support target monitoring, permit review, and opportunity screening within active client mandates.
Access is provided in connection with retained coverage—not as a separate software subscription.

Data Layers
Real-time monitoring of SMCRA mining permits, NPDES discharge authorizations, air quality permits, and reclamation bond status across Appalachian operators. Flag permit transfers, modifications, and enforcement actions that affect asset value.
Consolidated reserve disclosures, annual production reports, and seam-level quality data from MSHA filings, state agencies, and operator submissions. Track reserve depletion rates and remaining mine life.
Proximate and ultimate analysis by seam and operator. Washability curves and projected product yields for hard coking coal, pulverized coal injection, and thermal crossover material.
Rail loadout capacity, CSX and Norfolk Southern access points, barge terminals on the Ohio and Kanawha rivers, and port routing to domestic steel mills and export terminals.
Track assets in pre-market stages—distressed operators, idled mines with intact permits, and undeveloped reserves with active geology programs. Receive alerts when assets match your acquisition criteria.
Use Cases
Filter the Appalachian met coal universe by permit status, reserve size, and quality profile before engaging on specific assets.
Monitor competitor production, reserve additions, and permit activity to inform supply strategy and acquisition timing.
Track regulatory changes, production trends, and logistics constraints across owned or optioned assets post-acquisition.
Map supply concentration by basin, operator, and coal quality tier to identify sourcing diversification opportunities.
