	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2012						2011
	(Dollars in thousands) (Unaudited)
	Revenues		Percent			Revenues		Percent
Alpha Natural Resources	$	24,148		26	%	$24,842			29	%
The Cline Group	$	23,715		26	%	$14,430			17	%

In the first three months of 2012, the Partnership derived over 52% of its total revenue from the two companies listed above. As a result, the Partnership has a significant concentration of revenues with those lessees, although in most cases, with the exception of the Williamson mine operated by an affiliate of the Cline group, the exposure is spread out over a number of different mining operations and leases. Cline’s Williamson mine alone was responsible for approximately 11% of our total revenues for the first three months of 2012.
