Coal miner Paringa Resources had delayed the first coal sales from its Poplar Grove operation, in Kentucky, by two weeks until the week of April 22.
The ASX-listed company on Tuesday said that the delay in coal sales resulted from the decision to install the slope conveyor sooner than originally planned, as the run-of-mine volumes being brought to the surface via underground mucking and transportation was lower than expected owing to a directive from the Mine Safety and Health Administration that limited operations to one loader.
