Coal

While coal use has evolved and production has grown tremendously from the days of locomotive engines and potbelly stoves, it remains an essential component in our everyday lives. Coal-fueled electrical power is used to light homes, schools, offices, and shopping centers. Industrial facilities generate both heat and power for industrial uses. The global demand for energy is ever-increasing, as nations grow and develop and as new power-intensive applications emerge. Today, steam coal is used by utilities to generate electricity, while metallurgical coal is used for either the coking process or in place of steam coal.

Drummond has been in the business of mining since our inception in 1935. Our mining operations are located in Colombia and serve customers in both the U.S. and abroad.

We continually meet our customers’ energy needs in a complex and challenging marketplace through our ability to blend coal from multiple reserves to ensure consistent, high quality products.

Drummond controls reserves totaling more than two billion tons and today we ship over 30 million metric tons of coal to customers worldwide. We are proud to be identified as a significant producer of compliance coal, which meets the Phase II low-sulfur requirements of the 1990 Amendments to the Clean Air Act.
