I have also written to the mine themselves via their 'contact us' form to ask if their business is still viable.

@CarolineLucas with Port Talbot set to shut its blast furnace down, what is the point of the proposed Woodhouse Colliery? No UK customers that I can see. Are they going to export coal? #woodhousecolliery #westcumbriamining #porttalbot
So Port Talbot steelworks to close. That means no blast furnaces to smelt iron by reduction with coke in the UK. Now, when the Tories proposed the Woodhouse coal mine in Cumbria, it was to produce coking coal. With no demand for coke in the UK, who's going to buy any coal that the mine produces? Am I the only person to have noticed this?
