LONG-LIVED ASSET IMPAIRMENTS |
LONG-LIVED ASSET IMPAIRMENTS | 2.LONG-LIVED ASSET IMPAIRMENTS ​ During the first quarter of 2020, we recorded $23.5 million of non-cash asset impairment charges in our Illinois Basin Coal Operations segment due to sealing our idled Gibson North mine, resulting in its permanent closure, and a decrease in the fair value of certain mining equipment at our idled operations and greenfield coal reserves as a result of weakened coal market conditions. During the same period, we also recorded an asset impairment charge of $1.5 million in our Coal Royalties segment due to a decrease in the fair value of greenfield coal reserves held by Alliance Resource Properties near our coal mining operations in the Illinois Basin. See Note 16 – Segment Information for more information about our segments. ​ The fair values of the impaired assets were determined using a market approach, which represents Level 3 fair value measurements under the fair value hierarchy. The fair value analysis used assumptions regarding the marketability of certain mining and reserve assets near our Illinois Basin coal mining operations.
