Coal USA evolved in 2008 from American Longwall Magazine following reader and advertiser demand for a magazine that successfully targets both the longwall and room & pillar industries. While the Coal USA team is committed to ensuring the longwall sector continues to receive the same level of in-depth coverage and dedication it has grown to expect, readers and advertisers now have the added benefit of comprehensive coverage of the all important US room & pillar sector. Readers will benefit from the full picture of what is happening now in the US underground coal mining industry.

Distribution to North America's longwall mines is already thoroughly covered. In addition, this year Coal USA has increased its circulation amongst room & pillar mines, with 3000 copies of every edition destined for key decision makers in the room & pillar sector.

Coal USA is published and distributed by Aspermont Limited, Australia’s leading print and online publisher to the construction, mining, petroleum and transport sectors. Aspermont’s primary business is the production of print and online business-to-business news services and Aspermont is dedicated to providing objective analytical news to its readers, and end-to-end advertising solutions for its clients.

Aspermont also publishes International Longwall News, the magazine’s online counterpart – Longwalls.com.

Longwalls.com is the world’s only online longwall mining specific news source. Providing news daily (Monday to Friday) ILN readers receive breaking stories, across mine project developments, new equipment, R&D, safety issues, financial reports, coal price trends and much more.
