Billionaire coal baron Chris Cline died in a helicopter crash alongside his daughter
and six others died in a helicopter in the Bahamas on July 4, his lawyer has confirmed.
Attorney Brian Glasser confirmed on Twitter: “Our client Chris Cline died today. A billionaire, he never lost touch with the days he lived in a double wide and used a blow dryer to thaw his winter pipes. He was the most courageous client we ever had the privilege to represent. We will not see his like again. RIP. #chriscline.”
He took coal mining firm Foresight Energy public in 2014, and sold a controlling stake in 2015 for $1.4 billion cash, while in early 2017 he opened a new mine in Nova Scotia, and has another one planned for western Canada., the baron remained bullish on the prospects of coal despite the shift in attitude towards climate concerns.
