The gas from the coal apparently built up in the silo and ignited. The silo and much of the surronding area was destroyed. I don't want to even imagine what would happen if this Marsh Fork coal silo exploded. A current mine educator/former inspector told us about this, he is a family friend and asked that if we told about this, not to use his name. I don't know if the Keystone #2 explosion was publicized since only company property was damaged.
