(2) | LONG-LIVED ASSET IMPAIRMENTS
Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstance indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be recoverable. The impact of COVID-19 is being monitored closely, but for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, there were no material impairment charges recorded for long-lived assets. Carlisle Mine We recorded an impairment of $65.7 million as of December 31, 2019 due to our decision to idle the Carlisle Mine during Q4 2019. The impairment included buildings, land, rail, mine development, equipment, and advanced royalties. Buildings, land, and rail were impaired to their estimated salvage value. The remaining salvage value of land and buildings at the Carlisle Mine is estimated at $1.8 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. Subsequent to year end during late Q1 2020, we determined that it was economically prudent to permanently close the Carlisle Mine. Equipment totaling $23 million is being redeployed and will be utilized at the Oaktown mines. No additional impairment costs were recorded during Q1 2020 as a result of the decision to close the Carlisle Mine. Exit and disposal costs to close the mine were $1.1 million, which were recorded as current period costs in Q1 and Q2 of 2020. The exit and disposal costs during Q2 2020 were $0.6 million. Bulldog Reserves As a result of the Carlisle Mine impairment, we determined that an impairment of the Bulldog Reserves was also necessary. With the closure of the Carlisle Mine, it became apparent that the likelihood of construction and opening of Bulldog was reduced. Based on our review, we recorded an impairment of $9.2 million as of December 31, 2019, which included land and advanced royalties, and was a complete impairment of all assets. Hourglass Sands We recorded an impairment of $2.9 million as of December 31, 2019, due to softness in the pricing of the frac sand market. The impairment included inventory, land, mine development, buildings and equipment and was determined using a market approach. The remaining fair market value of inventory, equipment, and buildings at Hourglass Sands is $1.8 million and $1.9 million as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019,respectively.
