Since January 1st in 2008 the company that produces the hard coal in Germany is called RAG Deutsche Steinkohle AG and additionally there have been some structural changes. For that reason Pro-Bergbau presents a special page with various pieces of information about the RAG that can be found if you click here.

An exposition about the Clean Coal technology can now be found in the arguments' section.
