Operated from 1982 to 2000. This polygon includes the Shikano Pit, the coal washing plant and loadout facility for loading rail cars.

Quintette still has significant reserves, and Teck Coal plans to reopen the mine in 2013 as world demand and prices are rapidly improving. Teck will reopen the Windy Pit south of the coal plant, followed by the Window Pit.
