Westmoreland Mining LLC

Westmoreland Mining LLC is an independent coal producer founded in 1854, operating surface mines in the US and Canada that supply mine-mouth power stations and reclaim mined land.

Westmoreland Mining LLC is one of North America's oldest independent coal producers, tracing its origins to 1854 in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania. The company extracts coal from surface mines across the United States and Canada and supplies thermal fuel to mine-mouth generating stations that power homes across multiple regions. Its operations stretch along the spine of the Rockies, from Alberta, Canada to San Juan, New Mexico, with headquarters in Lone Tree, Colorado.

Work spans surface coal mining, mine contracting and reclamation, ash product development, and newer platforms in diversified energy, agriculture, recycling and industrial development. Reclamation is a core activity: the company's award-winning programmes restore mined land to equal or better condition than before mining. The business also undertakes contract mining for other operators and develops products derived from combustion ash.

Westmoreland describes a highly talented, multi-cultural and multi-generational workforce, with safety prioritised across operations. The company maintains relationships with indigenous communities, including First Nations in Canada and the Navajo, Crow, Northern Cheyenne and Ute Mountain Tribes in the United States. More than 170 years after its founding, the firm continues to operate as a leading independent coal producer while developing businesses beyond coal.
