Alliance Resource Partners operates as one of America's largest coal producers, mining and marketing coal to major utilities and industrial customers primarily in the eastern United States. Headquartered in Tulsa, Oklahoma, the master limited partnership operates eight underground mining complexes across Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia, producing approximately 30-35 million tons of coal annually. The company's coal serves primarily electric utilities and industrial consumers including steel manufacturers, cement producers, and other industrial facilities requiring steam or metallurgical coal. Alliance Resource Partners operates three business segments: Illinois Basin operations producing high-sulfur coal, Appalachian operations mining low-sulfur coal, and oil and gas royalty assets generating supplemental revenue. The partnership owns extensive mineral reserves totaling over 1.3 billion tons of proven and probable coal reserves, providing decades of mining inventory. Alliance employs approximately 2,800 workers and maintains a strong safety record with performance metrics consistently better than industry averages. The company invested in emission-control technologies and pursues reclamation projects converting former mining sites into productive land uses including commercial real estate, agriculture, and wildlife habitats.
