Item 8.01 Other Events

On July 21, 2010, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) was enacted. Section 1503 of the Dodd-Frank Act contains new reporting requirements regarding mine safety, including disclosing on a Current Report on Form 8-K the receipt of an imminent danger order under section 107(a) of the Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977 (the “Mine Act”) issued by the Mine Safety and Health Administration.

On November 23, 2010, Marfork Coal Company, a subsidiary of Massey Energy Company (the “Company”) and the operator of the Company’s Horse Creek Eagle Mine, received an imminent danger order under section 107(a) of the Mine Act. The order stated that the mine roof in one of the entries to the mine fell blocking access to two evaluation points and that the mine roof in another entry to the same area was severely deteriorated. The Company is currently evaluating the situation and will take steps to correct any unfavorable conditions and ensure the safety of its miners. No injuries resulted from the condition described in the order.
