>Anything in South America lately seems to have the serious issue of government pulling back on projects. Its happening all over the continent with copper, lithium, gold and even oil and gas projects.
That sucks hard. We need to beat back these green socialists.

Indeed it is.
Look at these anthracitic beauties!

One thing that strikes me about the green agenda is the sheer hubris of the Western World. It is assumed that if we stop burning coal for electricity, switch to EVs, and even stop using natural gas, then we'll save the world.
Meanwhile the West uses like 15-20% of the world's coal and China and India, the two biggest consumers, aren't following in our footsteps. So what's the point? We don't wield the influence we once did, yet our leaders charge forth anyway as if we did.
The West needs to be knocked down a few pegs for its own good and realize it is becoming just one cog in a multipolar world, and that in manufacturing, Asia is the superpower and there isn't even much of a multipolar world to be found.

Anthracite burns very clean, almost smokeless, and so it's well suited for use as heating and cooking fuel for your home. Perhaps some homesteaders can use it.
Nowadays, in the U.S. it comes mostly from a few surface mines in Pennsylvania.
