SnapshotOn March 7, 2024, Muhlenberg County Coal Resources, Inc., an affiliate of American Consolidated Natural Resources (ACNR), closed the Pride mine in Kentucky. The closure was reported by local media, citing the Muhlenberg Economic Growth Alliance as the source.

Pride Mine (formerly the Survant Mine) has TempIdle status according to MSHA as of 7/1/2025.

American Consolidated Natural Resources (ACNR) announced a shutdown due to several factors, including:
- Loss of a 1 million ton per year contract with LG&E at the beginning of 2023;
- Permitting issues for a waste pond, leading to increased production costs;
- Declining production throughout 2023.
