The Blue Diamond complex is located in Leslie, Perry, Letcher and Harlan counties in eastern Kentucky, and consists of four Company-operated mines and two contract mines, all of which are underground mines. We use room and pillar mining to mine the Hazard #4 and Alma seams of coal and our contract mine operators use the same method to mine the Leatherwood seam. Coal is processed at our preparation plant, and loaded into railcars via an integrated four-hour unit train loadout on the CSX railroad.
