Peabody Energy has 9.3 billion tons of reserves, manages or owns interests in 31 mining operations in the United States and Australia and has a minority ownership position in Venezuela's largest mine.

 

Peabody operated some of the most productive mines in America in 2007. The past three years have been Peabody's safest in our 125-year history, and the company operated the safest U.S. surface mine three of the past four years.

 

Peabody is consistently recognized with the industry's highest honors for stewardship and sustainability. The company earned five major awards for environmental excellence and community outreach from the U.S. Department of the Interior this year, and was internationally recognized for developing a world-class model for sustainable mining practices on tribal lands in Arizona.
