MARY D, SCHUYLKILL COUNTY -- The future of coal mining in Northeastern Pennnsylvania was the topic of a tour Tuesday near Pottsville.

State Senator Dave Argall organized the event to show the successes of anthracite coal mining and reclamation in our area.

But much of the talk turned to safety, as the mining tragedy in West Virginia continues to unfold.

Those at the event agree that despite all the safety precautions taken, coal mining by its very nature will always pose dangers to those who work in that industry.
