Coal Production – Conceptual Loading

The client is developing the Crown Mountain Hard Coking Coal Project in Elk Valley, British Columbia, targeting clean coal production. The project’s strategic advantage lies in its proximity to existing transport infrastructure, crucial for efficient coal delivery to West Coast ports. To bolster this logistic framework, The Client engaged Tri Innovations to identify optimal sites for rail loading facilities, a key component in streamlining coal transportation. Tri Innovations conducted a two-phased assessment, initially reviewing three potential sites based on a variety of criteria including terrain, land use, and environmental considerations. Following this analysis, we developed conceptual track layout designs for the recommended locations, ensuring the proposed rail infrastructure would meet the project’s logistic needs and operational efficiency.
