Preface

The Annual Coal Report (ACR) provides information about U.S. coal production, number of mines, productive 

capacity, recoverable reserves, employment, productivity, consumption, stocks, and prices to a wide audience, 

including Congress, federal and state agencies, the coal industry, and the general public. EIA publishes this report

to fulfill data collection and dissemination responsibilities under the Federal Energy Administration Act of 1974 

(Public Law 93-275), as amended.

Coal production, number of mines, employment, and productivity are based on the U.S. Department of Labor’s 

Mine Safety and Health Administration’s Form 7000-2, Quarterly Mine Employment and Coal Production Report. 

Productive capacity, recoverable reserves, and prices are based on EIA’s Form EIA-7A, Annual Survey of Coal 

Production and Preparation. Consumption and stocks are based on EIA survey forms.

This report is EIA’s 44th annual report on the coal industry, and it continues the series formerly included in the 

Minerals Yearbook, which the U.S. Bureau of Mines previously published. All data for 2019 and previous years are 

final. 

The Office of Energy Production, Conversion, & Delivery acknowledges the cooperation of the respondents in 

supplying the information published in the Annual Coal Report, and we appreciate the valuable assistance of state 

coal mining agencies and the U.S. Department of Labor, Mine Safety and Health Administration.

Executive Summary

Publication changes

There are no publication changes in this issue of the Annual Coal Report.

Production

In 2019, U.S. coal production decreased 6.6% to 706.3 million short tons (MMst) from the 2018 level, while the 

number of producing mines also decreased to 669 mines from 679 mines in 2018. Coal production in basins east 

of the Mississippi river decreased 4.6% while production declined 7.9% in basins west of the Mississippi river.

The Appalachian region’s coal production in 2019 was 193,205 MMst, a decrease of 3.5% from 2018. West 

Virginia’s production decreased 2.2% to 93.3 MMst, Pennsylvania’s production increased 0.3% to 50.1 MMst, and 

Eastern Kentucky’s production decreased 18.6% to 13.8 MMst. 

Coal production in the Interior region was 127.6 MMst, a decrease of 6.8% from the 2018 level. Production in 

Illinois decreased 7.5% to 45.9 MMst, production in Indiana decreased 8.8% to 31.6 MMst, and production in 

Western Kentucky decreased 1.9% to 22.2 MMst. Production in the rest of the Interior region decreased 7.2% to 

28.0 MMst, led by a production decrease in Texas of 6.1% to 23.3 MMst.

Coal production in the Western region in 2019 decreased 8.0% to 385 MMst. Production in Wyoming, the largest 

coal-producing state in the region, decreased by 9.0% to 276.9 MMst. Other large producing states in the basin 

include Montana, where production decreased by 10.7% to 34.5 MMst; Colorado, where production decreased 

by 8.3% to 12.9 MMst; and Utah, where production increased by 5.8% to 14.4 MMst.

Disposition of coal during 2019 totaled 698.8 MMst, of which 628.0 MMst was marketed as thermal coal and 70.7

MMst was marketed as metallurgical coal. Of the metallurgical coal dispositions, 52.9 MMst was exported, and 

17.8 MMst was sold to domestic customers.

Productive capacity

Productive capacity is the maximum amount of coal that can be produced annually as reported by mining 

companies. In 2019, the collective productive capacity of U.S. coal mines decreased 1.1% to 1,009.5 MMst. Major 

producing states that reported a decrease in productive capacity include Indiana (-10.4% to 42.7 MMst), 

Pennsylvania (-9.0% to 55.9 MMst), and West Virginia (-3.8% to 116.4 MMst). States with an increase in reported 

productive capacity include Wyoming (+0.7% to 439.3 MMst), Illinois (+21.1% to 67.4 MMst), and Colorado 

(+13.7% to 21.3 MMst).

The overall capacity utilization across all mines decreased to 69.8% in 2019 from 73.9% in 2018. Capacity utilization 

is measured as the ratio of annual production to the annual productive capacity of mines. 

Recoverable reserves

Total U.S. recoverable coal reserves that are technologically and economically feasible to extract as reported by 

producers fell to 14,151 MMst at the end of 2019 from 15,216 MMst at the end of 2018. Large producing states 

that reported an increase in recoverable reserves include Colorado and Pennsylvania.

Employment

The average number of employees at U.S. coal mines in 2019 decreased by 779 from 2018 to 52,804 employees. 

The average number of employees at underground mines decreased by 131 employees, and average employment 

at surface mines decreased by 644 employees. 

Total U.S. productivity as measured by average production per employee hour decreased by 4.7% to 5.9 short 

tons per employee hour. Productivity decreased by 2.2% in the Appalachian region to 2.79 tons per employee 

hour and by 6.7% in the Powder River Basin to 25.71 tons per employee hour. 

Consumption

U.S. coal consumption in 2019 was 586.5 MMst, a decline of 14.8% from 2018. Coal consumption in the electric 

power sector decreased by 98.6 MMst to 538.6 MMst. Coal consumption in the industrial, coke, and commercial 

and institutional sectors was 47.9 MMst in 2019, a 5.8% decrease from the 2018 level. 

Exports

Exports decreased by 22.5 MMst in 2019 to 93.8 MMst. Europe was the largest destination of U.S. exports,

amounting to 33.4 MMst. Steam coal exports accounted for 40.1 MMst (43.6%) of the total, and metallurgical coal 

accounted for 52.9 MMst (56.4%).

Stocks

U.S. coal stocks in 2019 ended at 165.7 MMst, 27.2% higher than at the same time in 2018. Stocks in the electric 

power sector increased by 25.3 MMst to 128.5 MMst at the end of 2019. Coal stocks held by the other industrial, 

coke, and commercial sectors, as well as producers and distributors, increased 10.2 MMst to 37.2 MMst at the 

end of 2019 compared with the end of 2018.

Sales price

The total average sales price of coal from U.S. mines in 2019 increased by 0.2% from the 2018 level to $36.07 per 

short ton. The average sales price of thermal coal in 2019 increased by 1.9% from the 2018 level to $27.54 per 

short ton, but the average sales price of metallurgical coal in 2019 decreased by 3.2% from the 2018 level to 

$139.78 per short ton. The average sales price of coal from surface mines increased by 2.6% to $22.47, but it 

decreased by 2.8% from underground mines to $58.68 per short ton. The average sales prices of coal by rank are

as follows:

• Average sales price of bituminous coal was $58.93 per short ton in 2019, a 0.8% decrease from the 2018

level

• Average sales price of subbituminous coal was $14.01 per short ton in 2019, a 2.7% increase from the 

2018 level

• Average sales price of lignite coal was $19.86 per short ton in 2019, a 1.7% decrease from the 2018 level

1 Data through 1973 for bituminous coal, subbituminous coal, and lignite, and data through 1978 for anthracite, were originally reported in short tons per employee day these data were converted to short tons

per employee hour by assuming an eight-hour day. Through 1997, other data were calculated by dividing total production by total labor hours worked by all mine employees except office workers; beginning in

1998, the calculation also includes office workers.

2 Beginning in 2001, includes a small amount of refuse recovery.

3 Through 1978, data for anthracite are not available by mining method, but are included in 'Total'.

* = Through 1978, subbituminous coal is included in 'Bituminous Coal'.

1 Because of withholding to protect company confidentiality, lignite prices exclude Texas for 1955- 1977 and Montana for 1974 1978. As a result, lignite prices for 1974-1977 are for North Dakota only.

2 See 'Nominal Dollars' in Glossary.

Notes: Prices are free-on-board (F.O.B.) rail/barge prices, which are the F.O.B. prices of coal at the point of first sale, excluding freight or shipping and insurance costs. Prices are for open market

and captive coal sales; see 'Captive Coal,' 'Free on Board (F.O.B.),' and 'Open Market Coal' in Glossary.

1 The coalbed ID number is a unique code assigned by EIA to each correlated coalbed or to coal-bearing geologic formations, coal groups, or coal zones. See Coalbed name discussion in note below.

2 Average thickness is the bed thickness weighted by bed production.

Notes: This table lists the top 25 producing coalbeds. The category 'Other Coalbeds' includes all coalbeds from which less than 4.0 million short tons were produced during the year. In some regions, coalbeds are

characteristically discontinuous or uncorrelatable from one location to another, and production is identified by the geological formations, coal groups, or coal zones of the native rock where the coalbeds occur.

These types of coalbeds are found primarily in the Rocky Mountain States and even in the Gulf Coast lignite belt. Coalbeds of these types are also included in 'Other Coalbeds,' even though production may exceed

4.0 million short tons. Totals may not equal sum of components due to independent rounding. The coalbed name given is the name most commonly used in the State having the greatest production from that

coalbed. The States having greatest production for each coalbed are Wyoming (coalbed codes 1495, 1699, and 1701); West Virginia (coalbed codes 212, 84, 111, 168, 103, 71); Illinois (coalbed code 484); Indiana

(coalbed code 489); Pennsylvania (coalbed code 36); North Dakota (coalbed codes 1569, 1570); Montana (coalbed codes 1696, 1808, 204); Virginia (coalbed code 344); Alabama (coalbed code 280); Utah(coalbed

code 1847); New Mexico (coalbed code 1003); Colorado (coalbed code 1756); West Virginia (coalbed codes 157, 176); Kentucky (coalbed code 151).In some other States where these are major producing beds, the

following alternative coalbed names are also used: coalbed code 484 (Kentucky, Kentucky No 11), coalbed code 489 (Indiana, Indiana No 5), coalbed code 36 (Pennsylvania/Ohio, Pittsburgh No. 8), coalbed code

111 (Kentucky, Hazard No 6).

Notes: Recoverable coal reserves at producing mines represent the quantity of coal that can be recovered (i.e. mined) from existing coal reserves at reporting mines. EIA's estimated recoverable reserves include

the coal in the demonstrated reserve base considered recoverable after excluding coal estimated to be unavailable due to land use restrictions, and after applying assumed mining recovery rates. This estimate

does not include any specific economic feasibility criteria. The effective date for the demonstrated reserve base, as customarily worded, is 'Remaining as of January 1, 2020.' These data are contemporaneous with

the Recoverable Reserves at Producing Mines, customarily presented as of the end of the reporting year's mining, that is in this case, December 31, 2019. The demonstrated reserve base includes publicly available

data on coal mapped to measured and indicated degrees of accuracy and found at depths and in coalbed thicknesses considered technologically minable at the time of determinations; see Glossary for criteria.

All reserve expressions exclude silt, culm, refuse bank, slurry dam, and dredge operations. Reserves at Producing Mines exclude mines producing less than 25,000 short tons, which are not required to provide

reserves data.

2 Mines that produce coal using shortwall, scoop loading, hand loading, or other methods.

Notes: For each State, stand alone preparation plant hours are distributed across mining methods by the proportion of underground hours for all stand alone mines. Productivity is calculated by dividing total

coal production by the total direct labor hours worked by all employees engaged in production, preparation, processing, development, maintenance, repair shop, or yard work at mining operations, including

office workers. Excludes mines producing less than 25,000 short tons of coal and preparation plants with less than 5,000 employee hours during the year, which are not required to provide data.
