SRK’s mine ventilation team supported Canyon Fuel Company, LLC in major ventilation upgrades at the Skyline and SUFCO mines. At Skyline, SRK helped reconfigure the system for mines 3, 4, and 5, commissioning and decommissioning four major fans and adding a new shaft. At SUFCO, the transition from the West Lease to the Lower Hiawatha seam required reversing the primary portal fan and converting to a push-pull system with a new shaft. For both sites, SRK’s team developed and validated detailed ventilation models, confirmed through on-site surveys, which were critical for effective ventilation planning.
