Safety and sustainability are the cornerstone of a successful mining operation. Our greatest responsibility is to ensure the health and safety of our workforce and our neighbors in the communities where we operate. We must also make sustainability and the stewardship of our natural resources our priority and our purpose. The objective of AMA is to provide our members with the tools to tackle these challenges now and long into the future.<\/p>

As the collective voice of Alabama\u2019s mining industry, AMA is the advocate dedicated to ensuring that decision-makers at the local, state, and federal level understand how our industry supports the economy in their districts and improves the quality of life of their constituents. We are also committed to strengthening relationships with our regulators to help us accomplish our shared goals.<\/p>

Whether you mine important industrial minerals, the stone, sand, and gravel that strengthens our infrastructure, met coal exported to steelmakers around the world, or the thermal coal that powers local industry, AMA is the unwavering partner that keeps you producing.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
