Sherritt's Prairie Operations operates six mine-mouth mines in Alberta and Saskatchewan. These mining operations supply electricity generation companies with coal under secure long-term contracts. Production in 2012 from Sherritt's mine-mouth operations was approximately 31.2 million tonnes.
Sherritt also holds a portfolio of mineral rights located in Alberta and Saskatchewan on which it earns royalties from the mining of coal and potash.
In June 2010, Sherritt Coal completed the construction of its joint venture activated carbon plant in Bienfait, Saskatchewan.
In addition to its current operations, Sherritt is looking at potential growth opportunities with new mine site developments.
