Coronach, Saskatchewan
Coronach is a community in southern Saskatchewan, Canada near the US border. It was founded in 1926 by the Canadian Pacific Railway and named after Coronach, the horse who had just won the Epsom Derby in England that year. Coronach was officially incorporated in 1928.
==History==
After its incorporation in 1928 the town's population teetered in and around 300, until about 1974 when the town discovered that they were to receive the Poplar River Power Project. This project brought many new citizens to the town to help with the building and operation of the Power Plant. The Poplar River Power Plant can be seen from a distance with the large smoke stack extending above the town. With the Poplar River Power Project also came the development of the Coronach Coal Mine, which provides the coal/fuel to the Power Plant. The Coal mine has had a few locations and a variety of owners; it is currently owned by Westmoreland Coal Company. Many people that visit the area enjoy touring the mine, where they can experience the immense size of the draglines as they dig down to uncover the coal. The coal will eventually be loaded onto the train and hauled over to the Power Plant, which is also a popular site to tour.
