The property and mineral rights Foresight acquired lie far outside its mining areas, according to Murray Energy. Murray Energy is seeking an injunction to prevent further breaches of the confidentiality agreement and to prevent Foresight from acquiring more mining rights in the region. The company also wants the court to issue an order compelling Foresight to offer mining rights to Murray Energy. They are also seeking damages, saying that they lose thousands of dollars every minute its operations are interrupted. This story broke as of press time and Foresight had not been given a chance to respond.
