Thomas,No, it is not abandoned. Although Soton and Maria Luisa are tied underground I think Soton pulls up its own coal nowadays. Until spring 2007 the coal of both pits were shipped all straight to the washery by a conveyor belt underground. Since the washery was decommissioned after a serious incident because the belt burned down, the company planned to install a skip in Maria Luisa to pull up the coal of both pits, that is why they are refurbishing the frame, as far I know.
Regards,
Ruben
