Warrior Met Coal Opens $1 Billion Blue Creek Mine in Alabama

Warrior Met Coal Inc. has completed the Blue Creek Mine project in Tuscaloosa County, Alabama, marking a major investment of approximately $1 billion. The new longwall mine is expected to create more than 300 jobs and will boost Warrior’s annual metallurgical coal production capacity by about 75%, with an average output of 6 million short tons per year over its first decade. The Blue Creek Mine, one of the last large-scale untapped met coal reserves in the U.S., is projected to operate for over 40 years. The project also features new rail and barge load-out facilities, as well as a state-of-the-art curved overland belt to efficiently transport coal while reducing local truck traffic. Significant additional investments from transportation partners and the Alabama Port Authority will further support the mine’s logistics and regional economic impact.
