Alpha Natural Resources doesn't mind going underground. The company produces steam and metallurgical coal at 45 underground mines and 25 surface mines, primarily in central and northern Appalachia. Low-sulfur steam coal, which is used mainly for electricity generation, accounts for most of Alpha's sales. The company produces about 25 million tons of coal annually and purchases another 5 million from other mining companies, most of which is blended with coal from Alpha's mines before being sold. It sells about a third of its product internationally. Alpha controls about 600 million tons of proved and probable coal reserves. In 2008 iron miner Cleveland-Cliffs agreed to buy Alpha Natural for about $8 billion.
