Photoshop?
The location appears to be one of the oil sands pits near Ft McMurray, Alberta.

There are coal seams in China and India that have been burning for decades. Evidently it is possible to extract coal from them anyway, even if you have to put it out before burning it productively.

Pictures from one of the Chinese ones show a wall 3 or 4 stories high and several hundred feet long blazing away. The smoke plume is visible from space.
