Black Thunder Mine is owned by Thunder Basin Coal Company, which is a subsidiary of Arch Coal Western Resources. 2009 Production was 73.6 million short tons at the Black Thunder Facility, down from 86 million in 2008. In late 2009, Thunder Basin Coal Company purchased the adjoining Jacobs Ranch Mine from Rio Tinto Energy America, and combined the two facilities. Jacobs Ranch Mine produced 38.7 million short tons in 2009, and the projected tonnage for 2010 for the new combined Black Thunder Mine is 120 million short tons.
