About Warrior
Warrior is a large scale, low-cost U.S. based producer and exporter of
premium hard coking coal (“HCC”), operating highly efficient longwall
operations in its underground mines located in Alabama. The HCC that
Warrior produces from the Blue Creek coal seam contains very low sulfur
and has strong coking properties and is of a similar quality to coal
referred to as the premium HCC produced in Australia. The premium nature
of Warrior’s HCC makes it ideally suited as a base feed coal for steel
makers and results in price realizations near the Platts Premium Low
Volatility Free-On-Board Australia Index price. Warrior sells all of its
met coal production to steel producers in Europe, South America and
Asia. For more information about Warrior, please visit www.warriormetcoal.com.
