The Coleshire Mining Corporation was founded by a Democratic Worker Council in Parlos Decina. Most of its investments came from members of the Karav family, who later bought out the company but allowed it to be run by the Democratic Worker Council that existed. The Karavs reaped minimal profits. During civil conflict in Western Beluzia, the Blue Coalition forced the Karavs out of Iker Ado. To keep the company running, Kristov II handed it over to the Astredies family at no cost. The stock price rose dramatically. They have owned the company since.
