Coal producer Alpha Natural Resources Inc. received court approval Thursday for a bankruptcy plan which includes the sale of certain core assets to lenders and outlines how to pay for cleanup of mines that have closed or might yet close.
Contura Energy Inc., a newly-formed group consisting of Alpha Natural Resources’ first-lien lenders, will purchase the company’s two Powder River Basin mine complexes in Wyoming and three in West Virginia and Virginia, among other assets, the company said Thursday.
Contura will also provide Alpha with a $35 million credit line and will contribute up to $100 million to help Alpha’s ongoing reclamation activities.

Alpha expects to operate as a private company when it emerges from bankruptcy protection later this month…
