Alliance Resource Partners announced production operations have resumed at its Warrior mine near Madisonville, Ky. Operations were temporarily suspended January 12, 2011, due to adverse geological conditions which disrupted ventilation in an area of the mine. Working in conjunction with the Mine Safety and Health Administration and the Kentucky Office of Mine Safety and Licensing, Warrior developed and implemented a plan to construct seals to isolate the affected area of the mine. After completing construction of the seals and conducting thorough examinations of the mine, the Warrior mine returned to production January 19, 2011.
