Gibson County Coal

Gibson County Coal operates the Gibson mine, an underground mining complex located near the city of Princeton in Gibson County, Indiana. The mine began production in November 2000 and utilizes continuous mining units employing room-and-pillar mining techniques. The preparation plant has a throughput capacity of 700 tons of raw coal an hour. We refer to the reserves mined at this location as "Gibson North" reserves. We also control undeveloped reserves in Gibson County, which are not contiguous to the reserves currently being mined. We refer to these as the "Gibson South" reserves.

Production from Gibson is a low-sulfur coal, that historically has been primarily shipped via truck approximately 10 miles on U.S. and state highways to Gibson's principal customer, PSI Energy Inc.(d/b/a Duke Energy Indiana, Inc.), a subsidiary of Cinergy Corporation (d/b/a Duke Energy Corporation). Gibson's production is also trucked or railed to our Mt. Vernon transloading facility for sale to utilities capable of receiving barge deliveries. In 2007, we completed construction of a new rail loop at Gibson providing access to both the CSX and Norfolk Southern railroads, expanding the market for coal produced at Gibson.
