Current Coal Market

Coal Marketplace

· Strong steam coal demand and pricing for both
domestic and international deliveries

· Southeastern U.S. utility inventory levels remain high,
but are correcting quickly despite a mild winter

· Unbalanced international markets driving record prices
for steam and metallurgical coal

· New safety regulations, permitting challenges, and
tightness of labor availability limit coal producers’ ability
to respond

Market Outlook - Domestic Steam Coal

• Export market has absorbed excess CAPP
supply, keeping prices high

• CAPP production declined 4.5% in 2007

• Further upward pressure on prices will
likely result when utility inventories return to
normal

Utility Inventory Levels

NOTE: 76% participation

Market Outlook - Export Steam Coal

• China demand exceeds its domestic supply

• Demand in India increasing

• Former Soviet Union countries seeking new supply

• Europe becomes a natural market for CAPP coal

• U.S. Dollar remains weak

• Export demand appears to be sustainable

Execution Risk?

• Massey has endured and grown while many others have failed

Execution Risk?

• Greatest risk to production is labor
turnover/shortage

• Massey has taken proactive steps to reduce
voluntary turnover in this strong market

» 3-year individual employment agreements

» Enhanced bonus and incentives

» Best benefits package in the industry

• Voluntary quits are down 5% year-to-date

» Voluntary quits for underground miners down 24% YTD.

* Average percentage deviation of actual results compared to analyst quarterly mean estimates
for EBITDA. Measured over 8 quarters in 2006 and 2007

SOURCE: Thomson Financial

Execution Risk?

• Massey results have been more consistent with analyst
EBITDA forecasts than most coal producers

Litigation Risk?

• First place team always has a “target” on their
back

• Conforming or giving in on all issues is not in
shareholders’ best interest in the long term

• Massey has resources to manage known liabilities

Summary

• Coal market outlook is strong

• Expansion plans are on track and accelerating

• Execution on plan will result in significant projected cash flow
generation and growth

• Investors have not recognized full value and opportunity of
Massey

• Massey remains focused on long-term enhancement of
shareholder value

Disclaimer

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS: Certain statements in this press release are forward-looking as defined by
the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements are based on facts and
conditions as they exist at the time such statements are made as well as predictions as to future facts and
conditions the accurate prediction of which may be difficult and involve the assessment of events beyond the
Company’s control. Caution must be exercised in relying on forward-looking statements including disclosures that
use words such as “believe”, “anticipate”, “expects”. Due to known and unknown risks, the Company’s actual
results may differ materially from its expectations or projections including disclosures that use words such as
“believe,” “anticipate,” “expect,” “estimate,” “intend,” “plan,” “will,” “project,” and similar statements that are subject
to risks. Factors potentially contributing to such differences include, among others: market demand for coal,
electricity and steel which could adversely affect the Company’s operating results and cash flows; future economic
or capital market conditions; deregulation of the electric utility industry; competition in coal markets; inherent risks
of coal mining beyond the Company’s control, including weather and geologic conditions; the Company’s ability to
expand mining capacity; the Company’s production capabilities; the Company’s plan and objectives for future
operations and expansion or consolidation; failure to receive anticipated new contracts; customer cancellations
of, or breaches to, existing contracts; customer delays or defaults in making payments; the Company’s ability to
manage production costs; the Company’s ability to timely obtain necessary supplies and equipment; the
Company’s ability to attract, train and retain a skilled workforce; fluctuations in the demand for, price and
availability of, coal due to labor and transportation costs and disruptions, governmental policies and regulatory
actions, legal and administrative proceedings, settlements, investigations and claims, foreign currency changes
and other factors; and greater than expected environmental and safety regulation, costs and liabilities. The
forward-looking statements are also based on various operating assumptions regarding, among other things,
overhead costs and employment levels that may not be realized. While most risks affect only future costs or
revenues anticipated by the Company, some risks might relate to accruals that have already been reflected in
earnings. The Company’s failure to receive payments of accrued amounts could result in a charge against future
earnings.

Additional information concerning these and other factors can be found in press releases as well as Massey's
public filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the Company’s Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2007, which was filed on February 29, 2008.

EBITDA is defined as income before interest and taxes, depreciation, depletion and amortization. Although EBITDA is not a measure of performance calculated in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, management believes that it is useful to an investor in evaluating the company because it is widely used
in the coal industry as a measure to evaluate a company’s operating performance before debt expense and as a measure of its cash flow. EBITDA does not purport to
represent operating income, net income or cash generated by operating activities and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of
performance in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. In addition, because EBITDA is not calculated identically by all companies, the
presentation here may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Reconciliations of EBITDA can be found in the company’s earnings
press release for the relevant periods.

Average cash cost per ton is calculated as the sum of Cost of produced coal revenue and Selling, general and administrative expense (excluding Depreciation,
depletion and amortization), divided by Total produced tons sold. Although Average cash cost per ton is not a measure of performance calculated in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles, management believes that it is useful to an investor in evaluating Massey Energy because it is widely used in the coal
industry as a measure to evaluate a company's control over its cash costs. Average cash cost per ton should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for
measures of performance calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. In addition, because Average cash cost per ton is not calculated
identically by all companies, the presentation here may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Reconciliations of Average cash
cost per ton can be found in the company’s earnings press release for the relevant periods.

Other income is calculated as the sum of Purchased coal revenue and Other revenue less Cost of purchased coal revenue and Other expense. Although Other
income is not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, management believes that it is useful to investors
in evaluating the Company because it is a widely used measure of gross income from non-core sources. Other income should not be considered in isolation or as a
substitute for measures of performance in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. In addition, because Other income is not calculated identically
by all companies, the presentation here may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. Reconciliations of Other income can be found
in the company’s earnings press release for the relevant periods.

Operating cash margin per ton is calculated as the difference between Produced coal revenue per ton sold (Produced coal revenue divided by Total produced tons
sold) and Average cash cost per ton (computed as noted above). Although Operating cash margin per ton is not a measure of performance calculated in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles, management believes that it is useful to an investor in evaluating Massey Energy because it is widely used in the coal
industry as a measure to evaluate a company's profitability from produced tons sold. Operating cash margin per ton should not be considered in isolation or as a
substitute for measures of performance calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. In addition, because Operating cash margin per ton
may not be calculated identically by all companies, the presentation here may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. The table
below reconciles the generally accepted accounting principle measure of Produced coal revenue to Operating cash margin per ton. Reconciliations of Operating
cash margin per ton can be found in the company’s earnings press release for the relevant periods.
