Coal-Mac. Coal-Mac is a surface and
underground mining complex located on approximately
46,800 acres in Logan and Mingo Counties,
West Virginia. Surface mining operations at the Coal-Mac
mining complex extract steam coal primarily from the Coalburg
and Stockton seams. Underground mining operations at the
Coal-Mac mining complex extract steam coal from the Coalburg
seam. The Coal-Mac mining complex shipped 2.9 million tons
of coal in 2009.

We control a significant portion of the coal reserves through
private leases. The Coal-Mac mining complex had approximately
26.7 million tons of proven and probable reserves at
December 31, 2009. Without the addition of more coal
reserves, the current reserves will sustain current production
levels until 2018 before annual output starts to significantly
decline.
The complex currently consists of one captive surface mine, one
contract underground mine, a preparation plant and two loadout
facilities, which we refer to as Holden 22 and Ragland. We ship
coal trucked to the Ragland loadout facility directly to our
customers via the Norfolk Southern railroad. The Ragland loadout
facility can load a 12,000-ton train in less than four hours. We
ship coal trucked to the Holden 22 loadout facility directly to
our customers via the CSX railroad. We wash all of the coal
transported to the Holden 22 loadout facility at an
adjacent 600-ton-per-hour preparation plant. The Holden 22
loadout facility can load a 10,000-ton train in about four hours.
Cumberland River. Cumberland River is an
underground and surface mining complex located on approximately
17,000 acres in Wise County, Virginia and Letcher County,
Kentucky. Surface mining operations at the Cumberland River
mining complex extract steam coal from approximately 20
different coal seams from the Imboden seam to the High Splint
No. 14 seam. Underground mining operations at the
Cumberland River mining complex extract steam and metallurgical
coal from the Imboden, Taggart Marker, Middle Taggart, Upper
Taggart, Owl, and Parsons seams. The Cumberland River mining
complex shipped 1.6 million tons of coal in 2009.
We control a significant portion of the coal reserves through
private leases. The Cumberland River mining complex had
approximately 22.7 million tons of proven and probable
reserves at December 31, 2009. Without the addition of more
coal reserves, the current reserves will sustain current
production levels until 2017 before annual output starts to
significantly decline.
The complex currently consists of four underground mines (two
captive, two contract) operating four continuous miner sections,
two captive surface operations, one captive highwall miner, a
preparation plant and a loadout facility. We ship approximately
one-third of the coal raw. We process the remaining two-thirds
of the coal through a 500-ton-per-hour preparation plant before
shipping it to our customers via the Norfolk Southern railroad.
The loadout facility can load a 12,500-ton train in less than
four hours.
Lone Mountain. Lone Mountain is an underground
mining complex located on approximately 22,000 acres in
Harlan County, Kentucky and Lee County, Virginia. The Lone
Mountain mining complex extracts steam and metallurgical coal
from the Kellioka, Darby and Owl seams. The Lone Mountain mining
complex shipped 2.2 million tons of coal in 2009.
We control a significant portion of the coal reserves through
private leases. The Lone Mountain mining complex had
approximately 30.6 million tons of proven and probable
reserves at December 31, 2009. Without the addition of more
coal reserves, the current reserves will sustain current
production levels until 2020 before annual output starts to
significantly decline.
The complex currently consists of three underground mines
operating a total of seven continuous miner sections. We convey
coal mined in Kentucky to Virginia before we process it through
a 1,200-ton-per-hour preparation plant. We then ship the coal to
our customers via the Norfolk Southern or CSX railroad. The
loadout facility can load a 12,500-ton unit train in less than
four hours.
Mountain Laurel. Mountain Laurel is an
underground and surface mining complex located on approximately
38,280 acres in Logan County, West Virginia.
Underground mining operations at the Mountain Laurel mining
complex extract steam and metallurgical coal from the Cedar
Grove and Alma seams. Surface mining operations at the Mountain
Laurel mining complex extract steam coal from a number of
different splits of the Five Block, Stockton and Coalburg seams.
The Mountain Laurel mining complex shipped 4.4 million tons
of coal in 2009.
We control a significant portion of the coal reserves through
private leases. The Mountain Laurel mining complex had
approximately 86.4 million tons of proven and probable
reserves at December 31, 2009. Without

the addition of more coal reserves, the current reserves will
sustain current production levels until 2017 before annual
output starts to significantly decline.
The complex currently consists of one underground mine operating
a longwall and a total of four continuous miner sections, two
contract surface operations, a preparation plant and a loadout
facility. We process all of the coal through a
2,100-ton-per-hour preparation plant before shipping the coal to
our customers via the CSX railroad. The loadout facility can
load a 15,000-ton train in less than four hours.
