Item 1.04 Mine Safety - Reporting of Shutdowns and Patterns of Violations.
On April 27, 2023, Nicholas Contura, LLC (“Nicholas”), an indirect subsidiary of Alpha Metallurgical Resources, Inc., received an imminent danger order issued by the Mine Safety and Health Administration (“MSHA”) under section 107(a) of the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977. The order was issued to the Jerry Fork Eagle mine (the “Mine”), located near Drennen, West Virginia.
The order alleged that a portion of the Mine was not receiving the required minimum airflow and that an accumulation of elevated methane was detected in the area. All miners were withdrawn (other than those needed to correct the condition) and adjustments were made to ensure the ventilation in the affected area was appropriate.
No injuries occurred in connection with the action, and MSHA terminated the imminent danger order immediately following the completion of the actions described above.
