Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract]

Asset Acquisition - Blair Facility

On March 4, 2022, the Company entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with Hi-Crush Inc., a Delaware corporation (“HCR”), and Hi-Crush Blair LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly-owned subsidiary of HCR (“Blair”), pursuant to which the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding limited liability company interest of Blair from HCR for aggregate cash consideration of $6,450, subject to customary purchase price adjustments as set forth in the Purchase Agreement (the “Transaction”).

The primary assets of Blair consisted of an idle frac sand mine and related processing facility located in Blair, Wisconsin. The Blair facility, which has approximately 2.9 million tons of total annual processing capacity and contains an onsite, unit train capable rail terminal with access to the Class 1 Canadian National Railway, became operational in April 2023.

The Company accounted for this transaction as an asset acquisition based on an evaluation of the guidance in ASC 805. The Company determined that there was not a substantive process in place that generates outputs that can be sold to a customer, and therefore the acquisition did not meet the definition of a business. The Company recognized identifiable assets acquired on a relative fair value basis. All assets acquired are allocated to property, plant and equipment, net on the balance sheet as of March 31, 2022. As of March 31, 2022, the Company also recorded an increase to its asset retirement obligations and a corresponding increase in purchases of property plant and equipment in the amount of $8,281 and subsequently revised the estimate to $1,988 based on its mine plan as of December 31, 2022.

The table below presents the calculation of the total purchase consideration:


Base price consideration	$	6,450
Net working capital adjustments and capitalized costs	97
Total purchase consideration	$	6,547
