About Us

At Reading Anthracite Company, we provide premium carbon solutions through responsible mining and processing practices. As the largest anthracite reserve in the United States, our world-class resource allows us to meet the diverse needs of industrial customers. We prioritize precision and efficiency in our operations, ensuring maximum resource recovery while minimizing environmental impact. Our focus on responsible extraction guarantees a consistent, reliable supply of premium-grade carbon for industries such as metallurgy and manufacturing.

With our strategic location near major rail and seaport hubs, we efficiently market and deliver anthracite both domestically and internationally. Our four processing plants specialize in crushing, washing, and sizing carbon to meet precise specifications for metallurgical smelting, ferroalloy production, and other industrial applications. Equipped with two drying facilities, we are able to provide low-moisture, high-quality anthracite tailored to our clients’ specific needs. By customizing our carbon products, we consistently deliver reliable performance and uphold high standards across various industries.

Beyond carbon production, we are committed to environmental responsibility through extensive reclamation efforts. After mining, we restore land to its natural state by regrading and replanting native vegetation, promoting long-term ecological sustainability. Our Famous Reading Outdoors, located on reclaimed lands, offers a recreational space for outdoor enthusiasts and highlights our dedication to community engagement.

Sustainability is central to our approach, guiding both our mining and reclamation efforts. At Reading Anthracite, we balance industrial progress with environmental stewardship, delivering reliable carbon solutions while leaving a positive environmental legacy for future generations.
