Administrative history
The Alexo Coal Company, Limited (Ltd.) was incorporated May 18, 1920 as the Alexo Coal Mining Company, Ltd., and was to take over and operate certain coal leases owned by the Alexo Mining Company of Ontario. The mine was located near Saunders, Alberta, specifically at Township 40, Range 13, West of the 5th Meridian (40-13-W5) on Wright Creek, on the Stettler-Nordegg Branch of the Canadian National Railway. E.F. (Ernest Fleetwood) Pullen was the president of the Alexo Coal Company, Ltd. from 1920 until his death on May 7, 1951; he was succeeded as president by Peter F. Pullen. Peter F. Pullen became general manager of the mine in 1949. As a result of decreased demand for coal, coal mining operations were discontinued and the mine was closed in 1955.
